Association between resting heart rate and prognosis in patients with gastric cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This study aimed to evaluate prognostic value of resting heart rate (RHR) in patients with gastric cancer. We analyzed 1,561 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at Severance Hospital, Korea. RHRs were measured after surgery, and detailed medical, treatment, and lifestyle information was collected. Cox regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) for the association between postoperative RHR and prognostic outcomes. During a median of 4 years of follow-up, we identified 174 total deaths, 92 major complications (within 30 days), 186 recurrences, and 106 gastric-cancer-specific deaths. In multivariable-adjusted models, HRs (95% CI) per 10 beats per minute increase in RHR were 1.18 (1.07-1.31) for all-cause mortality, 1.45 (1.33-1.59) for major complication within 30 days, 1.13 (1.02-1.26) for recurrence, and 1.07 (0.93-1.24) for gastric cancer-specific mortality. We consistently observed that higher postoperative RHR is associated with poor prognostic outcomes regardless of demographics, lifestyle, and cancer stage in patients with gastric cancer. In conclusion, an elevated postoperative RHR was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, major complications, and recurrence in patients with gastric cancer. RHR can potentially be used to predict the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.
