Effect of multidisciplinary interventions in perioperative management center on duration of preoperative fasting: A single-center before-and-after study.
Article in Fujita medical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objectives: Our aims were to clarify the actual situation regarding preoperative fasting and determine whether multidisciplinary interventions in a perioperative management center shorten the duration of preoperative fasting. Methods: The cohort of this before-and-after study comprised patients undergoing elective surgery aged 18 years or older who underwent general anesthesia at one of three stages: after starting a short preoperative fasting protocol (Group A), after the anesthesiologist started explaining the protocol (Group B), and after the start of the perioperative management center (Group C). Instructions on drinking clear fluids were given up to 2 h and 4 h before the start of elective surgery to the first patient on the list (on-time) and to the second and subsequent patients (on-call), respectively. Data were collected retrospectively in Groups A and B and prospectively in Group C. Results: The study cohort comprised 89 patients in Group A (50 on-time, 39 on-call), 108 in Group B (65 on-time, 43 on-call), and 284 in Group C (182 on-time, 102 on-call). The difference between the instructed and last drinking time was significantly shorter in Group C than Group A (30 [10, 140] vs. 30 [10, 60] vs. 20 [0, 50] min, p=0.003). The duration of fasting was significantly shorter in Group C than Group B (243 [150, 395] vs. 213 [151, 323] vs. 180 [146, 280] min, p=0.01). Conclusions: Multidisciplinary interventions at the perioperative management center tended to reduce the duration of fasting, suggesting that this approach may contribute to improved compliance.
