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

introductionMetabolic-bariatric surgery is associated with altered ethanol pharmacokinetics and increased alcohol-related risk. While these changes have been described after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, data regarding one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) have not been reported. This exploratory study evaluated changes in alcohol absorption, elimination, and subjective intoxication following OAGB.

methodsIn this prospective before-after interventional study, adults undergoing OAGB were assessed preoperatively and at 1 month and 4 months postoperatively. At each visit, participants ingested 200 mL of red wine (13.5% alcohol by volume; ∼21.3 g ethanol). Breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) was measured at fixed time points over 2 h using a calibrated breathalyzer. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including maximum concentration (C

resultsTen participants (mean age 42 ± 12.8 years; 60% female) were included in this study. Mean C

conclusionOAGB alters ethanol pharmacokinetics, leading to higher peak alcohol concentrations, increased systemic exposure, and enhanced subjective alcohol effects. Even modest alcohol intake may potentially lead to high BrAC levels after OAGB, reflecting the need for clinician-led patient education and advice on safer alcohol use after surgery. Given the small sample size, participant attrition, and short postoperative observation period, the study findings should be interpreted with caution.
