1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPerioperative positive fluid balance (FB) is associated with increased complications after lung resection surgery. However, its impact on the 30-day unplanned readmission rate is unclear. This study aimed to determine whether perioperative FB status during and up to 24 hours after lung resection surgery is associated with the 30-day unplanned readmission rate.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study examined adult patients aged 19 years or older who underwent lung cancer surgery at a single tertiary academic hospital between January 2005 and February 2018. Weight-based cumulative FB (%) was calculated during and up to 24 hours after surgery and was categorized as positive (≥5%), normal (0-5%), or negative (<0%). Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed.

resultsThe final analysis included 2,412 patients; 164 patients had unplanned readmission during the first 30 postoperative days (6.9%; 164/2,412). According to the multivariable logistic regression model, the positive FB group had a 2.42-time higher risk of 30-day unplanned readmission compared to the normal FB group [odds ratio (OR): 2.42; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.20 to 4.89; P=0.014]. However, the risk of the negative FB group did not significantly differ from that of the normal FB group (OR: 1.20; 95% CI: 0.46 to 3.12; P=0.711).

conclusionsPerioperative positive FB (>5%) during and up to 24 hours after surgery was associated with an increased 30-day unplanned readmission rate after lung cancer surgery. Future prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.
