Restrictive versus goal-directed fluid replacement strategy in ovarian cancer cytoreductive surgery (RiGoROCS): A randomised controlled trial.
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: Although goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is associated with reduced morbidity and length of stay (LOS) in the hospital after major surgery, it has not been widely studied in ovarian cancer cytoreductive surgery (CRS). The primary objective of the study was post-operative LOS. Methods: In this double-blind, randomised controlled trial, ovarian cancer patients undergoing elective CRS were randomised to receive either GDFT or restrictive fluid therapy after pre-randomisation stratification for primary debulking surgery or interval debulking surgery. The primary objective was to measure post-operative LOS in the hospital. Secondary outcome measures were the cost of surgical treatment episode and post-operative morbidity assessed by post-operative morbidity survey (POMS) on the 1 Results: Median LOS was 7 days (interquartile range (IQR): 5-10; Conclusion: GDFT did not confer significant benefit over restrictive fluid therapy in ovarian cancer CRS regarding hospital LOS.
