The BETTY Score to Predict Perioperative Outcomes in Surgical Patients.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The aim of this study is to evaluate a new user-friendly scoring system, namely the BETTY score, that aims to predict 30-day patient outcomes after surgery. In this first description, we rely on a population of prostate cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. The BETTY score includes the patient's American Society of Anesthesiologists score, the body mass index, and intraoperative data, including operative time, estimated blood loss, any major intraoperative complications, hemodynamic, and/or respiratory instability. There is an inverse relationship between the score and severity. Three clusters assessing the risk of postoperative events were defined: low, intermediate, and high risk of postoperative events. A total of 297 patients was included. The median length of hospital stay was 1 day (IQR1-2). Unplanned visits, readmissions, any complications, and serious complications occurred in 17.2%, 11.8%, 28.3%, and 5% of cases, respectively. We found a statistically significant correlation between the BETTY score and all endpoints analyzed (all
