Construction and verification of prediction model for postoperative hypokalemia in patients with oral cancer.
Article in Hua xi kou qiang yi xue za zhi = Huaxi kouqiang yixue zazhi = West China journal of stomatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesThis study aimed to explore the risk factors of postoperative hypokalemia in patients with oral cancer and to provide a basis for preventing and controlling postoperative hypokalemia.
methodsWe included 366 patients undergoing oral cancer surgery in the Department of Head and Neck Oncology, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University from January 2022 to August 2022. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk factors of postoperative hypokalemia. The receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curve was used to quantify the effectiveness of the factors. A nomogram of the risk factors for postoperative hypokalemia in oral cancer patients was developed and validated.
resultsA total of 224 patients (61.20%) had postoperative hypokalemia, the lowest serum potassium level (3.50±0.35) mmol/L on the 4th day after surgery, and the highest incidence of hypokalemia (54.68%). Variables with
conclusionsThe independent risk factors for postoperative hypokalemia in patients with oral cancer were as follows: preoperative serum potassium<3.87 mmol/L, preoperative serum calcium<2.31 mmol/L, preoperative PNI<49.16, and postoperative drainage volume>264.25 mL. Clinical attention should be paid to managing the above high-risk patients. Preventive potassium supplementation should be performed as soon as possible to reduce hypokalemia occurrence.
