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

objectiveTo explore the risk factors of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients with gastric cancer after radical resection and to establish a risk prediction model.

methodsA retrospective analysis of the clinicopathological data of 687 elderly patients who underwent radical gastric cancer surgery from January 2014 to January 2020 in the Third Department of Surgery, Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University was conducted. The degree of cognitive impairment was divided into POCD positive group (n=141, 20.52%) and POCD negative group (n=546, 79.48%). The general data of the two groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for POCD in elderly gastric cancer patients after radical surgery. A risk prediction model was established. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the model.

resultsMultivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative ASA classification (OR=4.674, 95% CI: 1.610~12.651, P=0.020), age (OR=3.130, 95% CI: 1.307~8.669, P=0.001), operation time (OR=2.724, 95% CI: 1.232~7.234, P=0.031), preoperative PG-SGA score (OR=4.023, 95% CI: 1.011-10.883, P=0.048), and preoperative hemoglobin (OR=4.158, 95% CI: 2.255~8.227, P=0.001) were independent risk factors for POCD. Intraoperative application of dexmedetomidine (OR=0.172, 95% CI: 0.078~0.314, P=0.002) and maintaining a deeper anesthesia state (OR=0.151, 95% CI: 0.122~0.283, P=0.018) were protective factors. The area under the ROC curve of the POCD risk prediction model for elderly gastric cancer patients after surgery was 0.820 (95% CI: 0.742-0.899) (P<0.01).

conclusionThe occurrence of postoperative POCD in elderly patients with gastric cancer is closely related to a variety of risk factors. By establishing a risk prediction model for the occurrence of POCD, high-risk patients can be effectively identified during the perioperative period, to intervene earlier.
