Fast-track surgery: procedure-specific aspects and future direction.
Review in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04584060 (Conventional VS Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocols in Emergency GIT Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 43 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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
introductionFast-track (FT) surgery can be defined as a coordinated perioperative approach aimed at reducing surgical stress and facilitating postoperative recovery. The objective of this review was to examine the literature on the procedure-specific application of FT surgery. DISCUSSION: The concept of FT rehabilitation has been applied mainly in colorectal surgery, but positive data have appeared also in other areas such as orthopedic, hepatopancreaticobiliary, urological, upper gastrointestinal, gynecological, thoracic, vascular, endocrine, breast, and pediatric surgeries. There is very little experience with comprehensive FT programs in cardiac surgery or trauma. Quantitative analysis from randomized trials and cohort studies suggest that FT is effective in reducing hospital stay without increased adverse events. Other benefits of the FT approach include a reduction in complications, ileus, fatigue, pain, and hospital expenses. However, despite clear benefits of FT care, implementation in daily practice has been slow. Further efforts must be undertaken to secure implementation in routine clinical practice. Standardized FT protocols should be provided on a procedure-specific basis.
