1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundRecurrent weight gain (RWG) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is an increasingly common challenge. Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) and single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) are surgical options available for achieving optimal clinical response in these patients.

objectivesThis study aimed to compare the characteristics and outcomes of patients who underwent either BPD/DS or SADI-S following RYGB.

methodsAn analysis of the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) database was conducted, focusing on patients from 2020 to 2022 who underwent BPD/DS or SADI-S following a primary RYGB. Postoperative bariatric outcomes, complication rates, and weight loss metrics-including percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), total weight loss (%TWL), and excess BMI loss (%EBMIL) at 30 days-were evaluated. A stratified analysis was also performed to assess differences between the procedures.

resultsA total of 616 patients were included. 75.5% (n = 465) underwent BPD/DS and 24.5% (n = 151) SADI after RYGB. The majority of patients were female (90.7%, n = 559), with a mean age of 48.2 ± 9.1 years. The mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) was 47.5 ± 8.3 for patients undergoing BPD/DS and 44.5 ± 6.8 for those undergoing SADI (p < 0.001). Patients who underwent BPD/DS had a higher prevalence of hypertension (47% vs. 33.7%, p = 0.004) and ASA IV classification (12.2% vs. 1.3%, p < 0.001), but a lower rate of drain placement compared to those who underwent SADI (31.8% vs. 45%, p = 0.003). There was no statistically significant difference in terms of length of stay, operative time, or intraoperative/postoperative complications in the first 30 days. Weight loss outcomes at 30 days were comparable between the BPD/DS and SADI approaches.

conclusionsAmong patients undergoing conversion after RYGB, BPD/DS and SADI demonstrated comparable short-term bariatric outcomes, with similar 30-day postoperative complication rates.
