Perioperative complication incidence and risk factors for retroperitoneal neuroblastoma in children: analysis of 571 patients.
Article in World journal of pediatrics : WJP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundSurgery plays an important role in the treatment of neuroblastoma. Perioperative complications may impact the course of neuroblastoma treatment. To date, comprehensive analyses of complications and risk factors have been lacking.
methodsPatients with retroperitoneal neuroblastoma undergoing tumor resection were retrospectively analyzed between 2014 and 2021. The data collected included clinical characteristics, operative details, operative complications and postoperative outcomes. Risk factors for perioperative complications of retroperitoneal neuroblastoma were analyzed.
resultsA total of 571 patients were enrolled in this study. Perioperative complications were observed in 255 (44.7%) patients. Lymphatic leakage (28.4%), diarrhea (13.5%), and injury (vascular, nerve and organ; 7.5%) were the most frequent complications. There were three operation-related deaths (0.53%): massive hemorrhage (n = 1), biliary tract perforation (n = 1) and intestinal necrosis (n = 1). The presence of image-defined risk factors (IDRFs) [odds ratio (OR) = 2.09, P < 0.01], high stage of the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group staging system (INRGSS) (OR = 0.454, P = 0.04), retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.433, P = 0.026), superior mesenteric artery encasement (OR = 3.346, P = 0.003), and inferior mesenteric artery encasement (OR = 2.218, P = 0.019) were identified as independent risk factors for perioperative complications.
conclusionsDespite the high incidence of perioperative complications, the associated mortality rate was quite low. Perioperative complications of retroperitoneal neuroblastoma were associated with IDRFs, INRGSS, retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis and vascular encasement. Patients with high-risk factors should receive more serious attention during surgery but should not discourage the determination to pursue total resection of neuroblastoma.
