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

Background: Bleeding following lung surgery can lead to reoperation and blood transfusions, potentially impairing outcomes. This study aimed to assess how bleeding complications affect long-term survival and postoperative complications in a nationwide contemporary group of patients undergoing lung resections. Methods: Adult patients who underwent lung resections, for both malignant and nonmalignant diagnoses, between 2013-2021, were included from the Swedish national registry for thoracic surgery. Patients with bleeding complications, defined as requiring reexploration and/or transfusions, were compared to patients without bleeding complications regarding long-term survival and postoperative complications. We used propensity scores and optimal full matching to account for differences in baseline characteristics between the groups. Results: The cohort comprised 15,617 adult patients, of which 646 patients (4.1%) had bleeding complications. The unadjusted 90-day mortality was 9.4% Conclusions: Patients with bleeding complications had reduced long-term survival and higher incidence of postoperative complications. A declining trend in bleeding rates over time was noted.
