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

Background and Aim: Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) provides potent and sustained efficacy in managing obesity and its associated comorbidities. Nevertheless, suboptimal weight loss outcomes persist in a notable proportion of patients after MBS. This study aimed to identify influencing risk factors and develop a predictive model to predict 1-year suboptimal weight loss outcomes following MBS in a prospective Chinese cohort. Methods: This study involved a prospective cohort of 120 patients who underwent MBS at Beijing Friendship Hospital from November 2021 to September 2023. Optimal weight loss outcome was defined as a total weight loss percentage (%TWL) ≥ 20% at the 1-year follow-up. Patient's clinical, biochemical, and CT-derived body composition parameters were collected at baseline and 1 year postoperatively. Independent predictors of suboptimal weight loss outcome were identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Subsequently, a nomogram was constructed and internally validated with its discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. Results: The study included 120 patients (77.5% female) with a mean age of 33.4 ± 8.7 years and a baseline body mass index (BMI) of 38.5 ± 7.1 kg/m Conclusion: Preoperative body composition parameters, specifically SAT and PSM, are critical determinants of weight loss outcome following MBS. The nomogram model constructed based on biochemical and body composition factors in this prospective Chinese cohort may offers great significance for preoperative assessment for MBS candidates in China. Nevertheless, further external validation in independent cohorts is warranted before its routine clinical application.
