Evaluation of respiratory exchange ratio (RER) for predicting postoperative outcomes in elderly patients undergoing oncological resection for gastrointestinal malignancies - A prospective cohort study.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background and Aims: Predicting complications after major oncosurgery is particularly daunting in the elderly subcategory of patients owing to factors like preexisting age-related immune cellular senescence and a significant imbalance of oxygen delivery (DO Materials and Methods: In the study, we enrolled 96 patients aged 65 years and above undergoing definitive surgery for gastrointestinal malignancy. The RER was calculated at predefined time points by a non-volumetric method from the respiratory parameters as RER = (end-tidal fractional carbon dioxide [FetCO Results: The patients who sustained major complications had a higher RER than the patients who did not sustain complications (1.47 ± 0.99 vs. 0.90 ± 0.31, Conclusion: The RER can serve as a noninvasive, real-time and sensitive indicator of tissue hypoperfusion and postoperative complications in geriatric gastrointestinal oncosurgery.
