Estimated intraoperative blood loss correlates with postoperative cardiopulmonary complications and length of stay in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic lung cancer lobectomy: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in BMC surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03933137 (Correlation Between P-POSSUM Score and Length of Stay in Kidney Transplant Recipients), which is not on this map. Cited by 23 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.

Abstract
backgroundThe purpose of our study was to estimate the influence of estimated intraoperative blood loss (EIBL) on postoperative cardiopulmonary complications (PCCs) in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
methodsWe conducted a single-center retrospective analysis on the clinical data of consecutive patients in our institution between April 2015 and February 2016. Demographic differences between PCC group and non-PCC group were initially assessed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to determine the threshold value of EIBL for the prediction of PCCs. Demographic differences in the PCC rates and length of stay between two groups of patients divided by this cutoff were further evaluated. A multivariable logistic-regression model involving the clinicopathological parameters with P-value< 0.05 was finally established to identify independent risk factors for PCCs.
resultsA total of 429 patients with operable NSCLC were included and 80 of them developed PCCs (rate = 18.6%). The mean EIBL in PCC group was significantly higher than that in non-PCC group (133.3 ± 191.3 vs. 79.1 ± 107.1 mL; P < 0.001). The ROC analysis showed an EIBL of 100 mL as the threshold value at which the joint sensitivity (50.0%) and specificity (73.4%) was maximal. The PCC rate in patients with EIBL≥100 mL was significantly higher than that in patients with EIBL< 100 mL (30.1 vs. 13.5%; P < 0.001). Both the length of stay and chest tube duration were significantly prolonged in the patients with EIBL≥100 mL. Finally, EIBL≥100 mL was identified to be predictive of PCCs by multivariable logistic-regression analysis (odds ratio = 3.01; 95% confidence interval = 1.47-6.16; P = 0.003).
conclusionsEIBL serves as a significant categorical predictor for cardiopulmonary complications following VATS lobectomy for NSCLC. Thoracic surgeons should minimize the EIBL and strive for the 'bloodless' goal to optimize surgical outcomes.
