Impact of perioperative fluid overload on the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications following lobectomy.
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. 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
Background: The incidence of pulmonary complications following lobectomy remains substantial, with postoperative fluid volume playing a pivotal role. However, the optimal management of fluids after lobectomy remains uncertain. This study aimed to establish a benchmark for perioperative fluid overload in patients undergoing pulmonary surgery by comparing the incidence of pulmonary complications following standard surgical procedures among patients with varying fluid volumes. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent lobectomy between January 2018 and January 2019. The primary exposure variable was fluid overload within the initial 24-hour period. The observation outcomes were postoperative pulmonary complications, acute kidney injury (AKI), and postoperative length of stay. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Results: Among the 300 patients included in this study, the low-volume group exhibited a significantly shorter postoperative hospital stay compared to the high-volume group (P=0.02). Furthermore, the low-volume group demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of postoperative atelectasis (P=0.03) and pulmonary infection (P=0.02) compared to the high-volume group. Moreover, logistic regression analysis revealed that the high-volume group had higher odds ratios (ORs) for developing atelectasis [OR: 2.611, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.050-6.496, P=0.04] and pulmonary infection (OR: 2.642, 95% CI: 1.053-6.630, P=0.04) following lobectomy when compared to the low-volume group. Conclusions: In patients with NSCLC undergoing lobectomy, reducing intravenous infusion after surgery while maintaining hemodynamic stability can effectively shorten hospitalization duration and mitigate the risk of postoperative atelectasis and pulmonary infection.
