The association between intraoperative fluid intake and postoperative complications in patients undergoing radical cystectomy with an enhanced recovery protocol.
Article in World journal of urology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo evaluate the association between intraoperative fluid intake and postoperative complications in patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer with an enhanced recovery protocol.
methods287 patients underwent open RC with enhanced recovery protocol (ERAS) from 2012 to 2016. 107 were excluded; non-urothelial (30), palliative (37), had adjunct procedures or not-consented (40). We prospectively evaluated intraoperative fluid intake (crystalloid, colloid and blood) and correlated with length of stay, 30- and 90-day complications.
results180 patients enrolled into the study with median age of 70 years (78% male). 71% underwent orthotopic diversion. Median intraoperative crystalloid and colloid intake were 4000 and 500 cc, respectively. Nineteen percent of patients received blood transfusion. Median length of stay was 4 days. The overall 30- and 90-day complication rates were 59 and 75%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regressions controlling for a subset of clinically relevant variables showed no significant association between intraoperative fluid intake and complications at 30 or 90 days (p = 0.88 and 0.62, respectively). A multivariable linear regression similarly showed no association between total intraoperative fluid intake and length of stay (p = 0.099).
conclusionHigher intraoperative fluid intake was not found to independently increase the complication rate following radical cystectomy. Larger studies and prospective trials are needed to determine if fluid optimization may play a role in decreasing morbidity after this major surgery.
