1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

To determine the influence of hospital bed turnover rate (BTR) on the occurrence of complications following minor or major digestive surgery. Background: Performance improvement in surgery aims at increasing productivity while preventing complications. It is unknown whether this relationship can be influenced by the complexity of surgery. Methods: A nationwide retrospective cohort study was conducted, based on generalized estimating equation modeling to determine the effect of hospital BTR on surgical outcomes, adjusting for patient mix and clustering within 631 public and private French hospitals. All patients who underwent minor or major digestive surgery between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2018 were included. Hospital BTR was defined as the annual number of stays per bed for digestive surgery and categorized into tertiles. The primary endpoint was a composite measurement of events occurring within 30 days after surgery: inpatient death, extended intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and reoperation. Results: Rate of adverse events was 2.51% in low BTR hospitals versus 2.25% in high BTR hospitals for minor surgery, and 16.79% versus 16.83% for major surgery. Patients who underwent minor surgery in high BTR hospitals experienced lower complications (odds ratio [OR], 0.89; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.81-0.97; Conclusions: High turnover of patients in beds is beneficial for minor procedures, but questionable for major surgeries.
