Postoperative complications are main reason for noncompliance with enhanced recovery after surgery program in patients undergoing hepatectomy and pancreatectomy.

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
BACKGROUND AND
aimEnhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols are reported to improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing a routine protocol and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing hepatic and pancreatic resections at our institution.
methodsA total of 99 consecutive patients at a single institution managed with a similar ERAS protocol were divided into the "early" (50 patients) and "late" (49 patients) cohorts. Both cohorts were statistically identical in demographics and range of surgical procedures performed. Postoperative complications, readmission, reoperation rates, and length of stay were analyzed. Categorical variables were statistically compared using Fisher's exact test and continuous variables using
resultsThere were 32 hepatectomies/18 pancreatectomies in the "early" cohort and 22 hepatectomies/29 pancreatectomies in the "late" cohort. The overall complication rate was 38.8%, with a 30-day readmission rate and reoperation rate of 16.1 and 5%, respectively. There was one mortality (1%). Group-specific overall complication rate (40
conclusionsDespite similar rates of adherence to the established ERAS 24 protocol, there was no improvement in median length of stay (7 days) between the "early" and "late" groups. The only reason for noncompliance with the ERAS protocol was development of surgery-related complications.
