Preoperative Assessment and Optimization of Cardiopulmonary Disease in Noncardiac Surgery.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
More than 50 million surgical procedures are carried out every year in the United States with the estimated risk of major adverse cardiac events perioperatively between 1.4 and 3.9%. Given that the majority of surgeries are elective, this allows ample opportunity to identify patients at higher risk of perioperative adverse events and optimize them for surgery. Preexisting cardiopulmonary disease is a major risk factor for adverse events perioperatively and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. It can predispose patients to perioperative myocardial ischemia and infarction, perioperative pulmonary complications, and perioperative stroke among other complications. This article details an approach to preoperative interview and examination, indications for preoperative testing, and strategies for optimization in patients with underlying cardiopulmonary disease. It also includes guidelines on optimal timing of elective surgery in certain clinical scenarios that can escalate perioperative risk. Through the use of thorough preoperative assessment, targeted preoperative testing, and multidisciplinary optimization of preexisting disease, perioperative risk can be decreased significantly and perioperative outcomes improved.
