Grip strength predicts postoperative ileus among patients undergoing abdominal minimally invasive surgery: a prospective multicenter cohort study.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 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
backgroundPostoperative ileus (POI) is a prevalent complication following abdominal surgery, leading to extended hospitalization and escalated medical expenses. Few studies have investigated the association between grip strength and POI after abdominal minimally invasive surgery (MIS).
methodsA prospective multicenter cohort study was conducted using data from a prospectively registered database of patients undergoing abdominal MIS from March to December 2022. Grip strength levels were categorized and analyzed for their association with POI using multiple regression analysis with demographic adjustments. A smooth curve was generated to visualize the linear relationship.
resultsOut of 501 eligible patients, 393 were analyzed, with 67 (17.05%) developing POI. Grip strength was significantly and independently associated with POI, with each 1 kg and 8.57 kg (SD) increase in grip strength resulting in ORs of 0.94 and 0.61, respectively. Grip strength categories specific to sex and age were significantly associated with POI incidence, with individuals in the high grip strength group having a lower risk. Subgroup analysis showed grip strength as a significant predictor of POI risk, especially for males and older individuals. Higher grip strength was associated with a significantly lower risk of POI in males (OR = 0.29, 95% CI 0.09-0.90, p = 0.031) and older adults over 60 years old (OR = 0.31, 95% CI 0.10-0.98, p = 0.046).
conclusionGrip strength can predict the occurrence of POI in patients undergoing abdominal MIS. This can help identify high-risk individuals and improve perioperative management for better outcomes.
