Preoperative Sedentary Time Predicts Postoperative Complications in Gastrointestinal Cancer.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundGastrointestinal cancer has a high global prevalence. Postoperative complications (PCs) affect the length of hospital stay and long-term outcomes. However, it is unclear whether preoperative sedentary time is associated with PCs, independently of physical activity (PA). We aimed to investigate the association between preoperative sedentary time and PCs independently of PA in patients who underwent surgery for gastrointestinal cancer.
methodsIn this prospective study, we included 112 patients who underwent colorectal cancer or gastric cancer surgery. Patient characteristics and surgery-related variables were collected. The Japanese version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (the usual 7-day short version) was used to assess preoperative PA and sedentary time. Patients were classified into two groups according to the grade of PCs: Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade.
