Four-Year Evolution of a Thrombophylaxis Protocol in an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Program: Recent Results in 485 Patients.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
"Enhanced recovery after surgery" (ERAS) protocols may reduce morbidity, length of hospital stay (LOS), and costs. During the 4-year evolution of a bariatric ERAS protocol, we found that administration of thrombophylaxis selectively to high-risk morbidly obese patients (assessed postoperatively by Caprini score ≥ 3) undergoing omega loop gastric bypass ("mini" gastric bypass) or sleeve gastrectomy resulted in safe outcomes. Both procedures proved equally effective with this protocol. The vast majority of rapidly mobilized, low-risk patients did not appear to require antithrombotic heparin. Similar to other reported ERAS outcomes, our recent year's results in 485 patients included a mean LOS of 1.08 ± 0.64 days (range 1-14), with 460 (95.0%) discharged on day 1 and 99.6% by day 2. There were 13 30-day complications (2.7%), two reinterventions (0.4%), and no hemorrhages.
