Effect of enhanced recovery after surgery program on patient-reported outcomes and function recovery in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) on perioperative outcomes, with an emphasis on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and functional recovery.We compared the clinical outcomes in a cohort of 275 patients undergoing liver resection before and after the implementation of ERAS. The PROs were preoperatively and postoperatively compared until 14 days after surgery using the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory.The patients in the ERAS group experienced fewer symptoms and a shorter functional recovery time than the patients in the non-ERAS group. The group × time interactions were different between the groups for pain (F = 4.70, P = .001) and walking (F = 2.75, P = .03). On the 3rd, 4, and 5th days after surgery, the ERAS group experienced less pain and more walking than the non-ERAS group. The ERAS group experienced less fatigue (0.407 [95% confidence interval, CI: -0.795, -0.020], P = .035), less sleep interference (0.615 [95% CI: -1.215, -0.014], P = .045), a lower rate of reduced appetite (0.281 [95% CI: -0.442, -0.120], P = .001), and less abdominal distension (0.262 [95% CI: -0.504, -0.020], P = .034) than the non-ERAS group. Those in the ERAS group had a significantly shorter median time from surgery to mild fatigue (5.41 vs 6.87 days, P = .003), mild pain (4.45 vs 6.09 days, P = .001), mild interference when walking (3.85 vs 5.54 days, P < .001), and mild interference when sleeping (5.49 vs 7.43 days, P < .001). ERAS patients were more likely than non-ERAS patients to achieve a functional recovery (5.70 vs 6.79 days, P < .001) status in a shorter time period. The ERAS pathway, operation time, and the minimally invasive approach were independent predictors of functional recovery time.In hepatocellular carcinoma liver resection patients, the primary mechanism of ERAS is to reduce the postoperative interference burden and promote rapid functional recovery.
