Risk factors for postoperative hepatic dysfunction in overweight patients with acute type A aortic dissection.
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 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAcute hepatic dysfunction (AHD) is a common postoperative complication in patients with acute type A aortic dissection. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for acute hepatic dysfunction after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection.
methodsWe performed a retrospective study from March 1, 2019, to February 28, 2021. The primary endpoints of this study were morbidity due to AHD and risk factors for incidence. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyse the related factors, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to evaluate their predictive value.
resultsAmong 147 patients, 29 (19.73%) developed postoperative acute hepatic dysfunction, and 9 (6.12%) died. Univariate analysis revealed that the ALT (P = 0.042), Cr (P < 0.001), and BUN (P = 0.008) levels were significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that Cr (OR = 1.013, 95% CI = 1.003-1.023, P = 0.008) was an independent risk factor for postoperative hepatic dysfunction in overweight (BMI > 24) patients with ATAAD. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for Cr was 0.745 > 0.7, indicating good predictive value.
conclusionA high Cr concentration is an independent risk factor for postoperative AHD in overweight (BMI > 24) patients with ATAAD.
