The Impact of Frailty on Patients Undergoing Liver Resection for Colorectal Liver Metastasis.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study is to assess the impact of frailty on short-term outcomes after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).
methodsPatients were identified using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP). Patients were divided into 3 categories using the 5-item Modified Frailty Index (mFI).
resultsThere were 5230 patients included. 52%, 35%, and 13% had mFI scores of 0, 1, and ≥ 2 respectively. Patients with a ≥ 2 mFI score were more likely to experience minor complication (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.06-1.69), major complication (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.15-2.12), readmission (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.12-2.14), unfavorable discharge (OR 2.48, 95% CI 1.62-3.80), 30-day mortality (OR 3.02, 95% CI 1.02-8.95), prolonged length of stay (OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.18-1.83), and bile leak (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.02-2.24).
conclusionFrailty is associated with increased post-operative complications. The 5-item mFI can guide risk stratification, optimization, and counseling.
