Examining the relationship between preoperative nutritional and symptom assessment and postoperative atrial fibrillation in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in BMC surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThe study aimed to examine the relationship between preoperative nutritional status, symptom burden, and the occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma patients.
methodsThe study, conducted in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at the Affiliated Huai'an No. 1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, applied the NRS 2002, SGA and MSAS scoring systems as measures of nutritional status and symptom occurrence in patients diagnosed with ESCC. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to evaluate the association between nutritional scores, symptom scores, and postoperative complications.
resultsThe research found a significant correlation between high MSAS scores and postoperative atrial fibrillation. Patients with high symptom burden also tended to have nutritional risk or malnutrition according to the NRS2002 and SGA scores.
conclusionThere is a need for healthcare providers to pay attention to ESCC patients' physical and psychological symptoms. Close monitoring of nutritional status and timely nutritional interventions should be integrated into these patients' care plans as they have been found to be related to postoperative complications such as atrial fibrillation.
