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

purposeEvaluate adherence to bariatric surgery enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in pre-operative, operative, and post-operative phases, and to compare opiate use, nausea control, and length of stay (LOS) versus historical controls. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective, observational cohort study was conducted to evaluate adherence to ERAS protocols and compare opiate and antiemetic use, pain intensity, and LOS versus those of traditional care (TC) patients preceding protocol implementation at Erie County Medical Center, a community-based hospital in Buffalo, NY, USA.

resultsOne hundred ERAS and TC patients were compared. Patients were similar in age (42.5 years), gender (female, ~ 80%), race (~ 80 white), and BMI (47 kg/m

conclusionsBariatric surgery ERAS protocols were implemented with a high rate of adherence and yielded profound reduction in operative and post-operative opiate use while improving pain control and nausea management in hospital and decreasing LOS.
