Morbidity and mortality after elective cancer surgery-How does recent Covid-19 infection impact outcome: A prospective, comparative study.
Article in Journal of anaesthesiology, clinical pharmacology. 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 and Aims: Post-Covid-19 cancer patients are likely to have poor postoperative outcomes following cancer surgeries. This is mainly because of the coexisting risk factors unique to cancer patients like immunosuppression, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy-induced risk of infection and malnutrition. The purpose of this study was to compare the postoperative morbidity in cancer patients with and without a history of Covid infection. Material and Methods: This was a prospective observational study. Subjects were divided into post-Covid 19 (PC) and non-Covid 19 (NC) groups based on the history of SARS CoV2. Preoperative data including details of past Covid infection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, comorbidity index, Portsmouth-Physiological and Operative Severity Score for the enumeration of Mortality and Morbidity (P-POSSUM) score, and nutritional indices were recorded for patients undergoing elective cancer surgery. Thirty-day postoperative morbidity, mortality was recorded. Results: Of the total patients ( Conclusions: Cancer patients with a history of Covid infection undergoing elective surgery are at a higher risk of postoperative pulmonary complications.
