effect estimate for differences in mean HbA1c at study end point between Surgery and Medical/Lifestyle groups -1.14% (95% CI -1.57% to -0.71%) in meta-analysis of 15 trials with 1,067 participants

Patients with type 2 diabetes NOTE: note.text is used artificially to support the EBMonFHIR Implementation Guide and the following content would more properly be found in a note.text element: The observed element can reference a Group Resource that represents an actual group of studies included and has a quantity. The quantity would be the number of members (number of studies), and the characteristic can be code 'Member of' and valueReference EvidenceList with an EvidenceList that can reference the Evidence Resources representing the individual study results. This meta-analysis included 15 studies. The intended element (if desired) can reference a Group Resource that expresses the population of studies intended for evidence application through structured characteristics. The structured characteristics could be used to express the SR eligibility criteria for participants (i.e. included studies). The included trials included patients with T2D, including mainly individuals with BMI ≥35 kg/m2 (the most commonly used threshold for traditional bariatric surgery) as well as some patients with BMI <35 kg/m2 (range 25–35 kg/m2).
