Prevalence of postoperative complications in oncologic gastro-esophageal surgeries: a cross-sectional study.
Observational study in Acta cirurgica brasileira, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThis study evaluated the prevalence of complications in the postoperative period of esophagogastric oncological surgeries.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study, adhering to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines. The study size implied 163 patients who underwent surgical treatment for esophageal and gastric cancer and experienced postoperative complications between January 2018 and December 2022. These patients were treated at the Liga Norte Riograndense Contra o Câncer, a high-complexity oncology center and a reference for cancer treatment in Northeast Brazil.
resultsThe prevalence found was 88.3%. The most prevalent complications were Clavien-Dindo I and II, and infection was the most common. According to our statistics analysis, hypoalbuminemia showed a positive correspondence with the occurrence of postoperative complications (odds ratio = 8.60; 95% confidence interval 1.35-54.64, p = 0.0358).
conclusionsPostoperative complications of gastroesophageal surgeries increase patient morbidity and mortality.
