Factors influencing postoperative complications in patients with gastric cancer: A retrospective study.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundGastric cancer is a malignancy with high morbidity and mortality rates. Surgical intervention, particularly gastrectomy, is essential for curative treatment but carries a substantial risk of complications. Identifying key risk factors and understanding complication profiles are crucial for improving outcomes and guiding perioperative management.
aimTo analyze the incidence of postoperative complications in patients with gastric cancer and identify potential risk factors.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 500 patients who underwent gastrectomy between January 2018 and December 2022. Postoperative complications were classified using the Clavien-Dindo system.
resultsThe overall complication rate was 28.4% (142/500), with 15.2% (76/500) experiencing major complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ III). Pulmonary complications were the most frequent (10.8%), followed by surgical site infections (8.6%), and anastomotic leakage (4.2%). Age 70 years or more, body mass index of 25 kg/m² or more, advanced tumor stage, total gastrectomy, and operative time 240 min or more emerged as independent risk factors.
conclusionFocused preoperative risk assessment, targeted interventions, and reduced operative time for older or obese patients requiring total gastrectomy or presenting with advanced disease are important to improve surgical outcomes.
