Analysis of influencing factors of postoperative myasthenic crisis in 564 patients with myasthenia gravis in a single center.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2023. 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
objectiveTo study the influencing factors of myasthenic crisis in patients with myasthenia gravis during perioperative period.
methodsA total of 564 myasthenia gravis (MG) patients who underwent standard expanded resection of thymoma/thymoma in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Beijing Hospital from January 2011 to March 2022 were retrospectively included in the study. Clinical indicators such as gender, age, thymoma, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and some others were recorded.
resultsOsserman-stages IIB + III + IV (odds ratio [OR] 16.091, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.170-50.076, p value < 0.001), the dosage of pyridostigmine bromide more than 240 mg (OR 6.462, 95% CI 3.110-13.427, p value < 0.001), ASA score 2 and 3 (OR 3.203, 95% CI 1.461-7.020, p value = 0.004), low diffusion lung capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO%) (OR 0.981, 95% CI 0.963-1.000 p value = 0.049), and blood loss greater than 1000 ml (OR 16.590, 95% CI 1.911-144.011, p value = 0.011) were independent risk factors for myasthenic crisis.
conclusionsPatients with poor Osserman stages, higher preoperative dosage of pyridostigmine bromide, higher ASA score, poor pulmonary function (low DLCO%), and more intraoperative bleeding should be highly vigilant for the occurrence of postoperative myasthenic crisis.
