Usefulness of an enhanced recovery after surgery protocol for perioperative management following open repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Article in Surgery today, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06146426 (Effects of Early Oral Diet After Cardiac Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeTo achieve early recovery and early discharge from the hospital by applying an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol, which is mainly used with colonic surgery, for the perioperative management of open AAA surgery.
methodOne hundred twenty-seven open AAA surgery cases successfully carried out between 2003 and 2011 were included in this study. The ERAS protocol was used for the cases from April 2008 onward, and we performed a comparison of the conventionally treated cases with ERAS cases regarding the start of postoperative oral consumption, the postoperative hospital stay, and hospitalization medical costs.
resultsThe time to restarting oral consumption and the postoperative hospital stay were significantly shorter for the ERAS group (n = 52) compared to the conventionally managed group (n = 75); with values of 59 ± 15 and 93 ± 25 h (p = 0.021), 9 ± 3 and 16 ± 5 days (p = 0.001), respectively. The medical costs for the ERAS group were 92 % of the costs of the conventionally managed group.
conclusionUse of the ERAS protocol for the perioperative management of open AAA surgery shortened the time before recommencing oral consumption, the postoperative hospital stay, and reduced the medical costs compared to the conventional approach.
