Anesthetic predictors for postoperative pneumonia in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2024. 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
Background: Postoperative pneumonia (POP) is a preventable complication associated with adverse outcomes. The aim of this study is to explore the anesthetic predictor for POP in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after surgery. Methods: A total of 306 patients with NSCLC were selected. Multivariable logistic regression analysis model was used to screen the independent predictors for POP. The primary outcome was POP and the secondary outcomes were intensive care unit (ICU) admission rate, reintubation rate and postoperative hospital stay (PHS). Results: POP occurred in 102 (33.3%) of 306 patients. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that perioperative propofol administration >4.42 mg/kg [odds ratio (OR) =0.543, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.330-0.895, P=0.02] lowered the risk of POP, while duration of surgery >3 h (OR =1.951, 95% CI: 1.189-3.199, P=0.008) and total intraoperative fluid infusion >1,450 mL (OR =2.428, 95% CI: 1.307-4.509, P=0.005) were associated with the increasing risk of POP. There was a higher ICU admission and reintubation rate in the POP group (P<0.05). Conclusions: Perioperative propofol administration >4.42 mg/kg may diminish the incidence of POP, while duration of surgery >3 h and intraoperative fluid infusion >1,450 mL increase the development of POP.
