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

Introduction: It is suggested that preoperative carbohydrate loading may have beneficial effects, which is emphasised in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols (ERAS). Recent data confirmed that carbohydrate loading shortens length of hospital stay. Aim: In this systematic review we aimed to determine whether carbohydrate loading have positive effects in patients undergoing 1-day surgery. Material and methods: We searched 5 databases and identified some randomized controlled trials which were reviewed independently by two reviewers. In the end 6 RCTs were included, involving 411 patients. Studies compared effects of carbohydrate loading vs. fasting and/or placebo on the following outcomes: thirst, hunger, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), fatigue, pain and postoperative insulin resistance. In most cases data are inconclusive as studies reported opposite results. Conclusions: It seems that carbohydrate loading did not have a significant impact when compared to fasting or placebo. Preoperative carbohydrate loading seems not to have significant benefits over fasting or placebo in patients qualified for 1-day surgery.
