Perioperative Use of Glucocorticoids and Intraoperative Hypotension May Affect the Incidence of Postoperative Infection in Patients with Gastric Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2021. 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
backgroundIn patients undergoing surgical resection for gastric cancer, postoperative complications-in particular, postoperative infections-remain an important problem and can result in delayed recovery and increased postoperative mortality.
objectiveTo investigate the association between perioperative anesthesia management and postoperative infectious complications in patients undergoing resection for gastric cancer.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingA single-center study performed from April 1, 2015, to June 30, 2018, at Peking University Cancer Hospital. PATIENTS: Patients who underwent resection for gastric cancer.
main outcome measuresDemographic information, perioperative data (including anesthesia-related data, surgery-related data, and cancer diagnosis), and information on postoperative recovery were recorded. The primary outcome was incidence of postoperative infection; the secondary outcome was length of hospital stay. The associations between perioperative factors and postoperative infectious complications were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression models and the classification tree method.
resultsA total of 880 patients were included in the study; of these, 111 (12.6%) had postoperative infectious complications during hospitalization, including 78 surgical site infections and 62 remote infections. After correction for confounding factors on logistic multivariable analysis, perioperative use of glucocorticoids was associated with a lower incidence of postoperative infection (hazard ratio 0.968, 95% confidence interval 0.939 to 0.997,
conclusionFor patients with gastric cancer, perioperative use of glucocorticoids and avoiding intraoperative hypotension may decrease the incidence of postoperative infectious complications.
