Post-cholecystectomy quality of life: a prospective multicenter cohort study of its associations with preoperative functional status and patient demographics.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
purposeThis study analyzed patient demographics and preoperative functional status for associations with post-cholecystectomy quality of life (QOL).
methodsThis prospective study analyzed 159 cholecystectomy patients at two tertiary academic hospitals. All patients completed the SF-36 and the gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) at baseline and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. The 95% confidence intervals for differences in responsiveness estimates were derived by bootstrap estimation. Scores derived by these instruments were interpreted by generalized estimating equation (GEE) before and after cholecystectomy.
resultsThe examined population significantly (p < 0.05) improved in both SF-36 subscales and GIQLI subscales. After adjusting for time effects (time, and time(2)) and baseline predictors, GEE approaches revealed the following explanatory variables for QOL: time, time(2), age, gender, preoperative GIQLI score, body mass index, and number of comorbidities.
conclusionThe data revealed dramatically improved post-cholecystectomy QOL. However, QOL change was simultaneously associated with preoperative functional status and demographic characteristics.
