Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a completed multicenter retrospective cohort study registered on ClinicalTrials.gov comparing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with and without concomitant cholecystectomy in high-risk patients with severe obesity and symptomatic cholelithiasis. No results are posted in this registry record; outcomes cannot be assessed until publication.
Observational. Bariatric Surgery Candidate, Cholelithiases; age from 18 Years; to 60 Years. Intervention: A; B. Compared with: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) alone. n = 2,512. Three research institutes in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

The title claims safety findings, but the registry record itself reports no data to support any conclusion about safety, length of stay, morbidity, or the comparability of the two groups.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
This is a registry record describing a completed observational study with no results posted; the source contains only study design and enrollment information, not outcome data.
As stated by the source record.
Quoted from the source exactly as published.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07772440). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Zagazig University. Recruitment status: COMPLETED. Study type: OBSERVATIONAL. Enrollment: 2512 participants (ACTUAL). Conditions: Bariatric Surgery Candidate, Cholelithiases. Primary outcome measures: overall 30 day postoperative complication rate , 30 day postoperative. Brief summary: Despite numerous single-center reports and meta-analyses, few studies have directly compared outcomes of LSG with versus without concomitant cholecystectomy exclusively in a high-risk cohort as defined above. To the best of our knowledge, only one prior study (Dincer and Dogan, 2019) specifically examined this high-risk population, and it included only 27 patients in the concomitant group. This multicenter retrospective comparative study - conducted in three research institutes in Egypt and Saudi Arabia - aims to evaluate the safety of concomitant cholecystectomy during LSG in high-risk patients with severe obesity and symptomatic cholelithiasis, using a control group of high-risk patients who underwent LSG alone. Our study provides the largest cohort to date specifically addressing this question in a high-risk population.
