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
ObjectiveThis study explored the impact of preoperative fasting duration on patients who underwent transurethral enucleation of the prostate and analyzed the risk factors for postoperative bleeding.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted among 51 patients who underwent transurethral enucleation of the prostate for benign prostatic hyperplasia between December 2021 and March 2024. Baseline and perioperative data were collected. The impact of long versus short preoperative fasting was compared. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for bleeding complications after transurethral enucleation of the prostate.ResultsThe mean hemoglobin difference in the short fasting group was 14.43 ± 11.23 g/L, while that in the long fasting group was 17.21 ± 12.21 g/L, showing a statistically significant difference (p = 0.048). The mean postoperative hospital stay was 3.39 ± 1.05 days in the short fasting group and 4.21 ± 1.68 days in the long fasting group, showing a statistically significant difference (p = 0.047). Univariate and multivariate regression analyses identified prostate mass (p = 0.045) and preoperative fasting duration (p = 0.033) as independent risk factors for postoperative bleeding in patients who had undergone transurethral enucleation of the prostate.ConclusionPatients who had undergone transurethral enucleation of the prostate after longer preoperative fasting experienced a more significant decline in hemoglobin levels and required longer postoperative hospitalization. Prostate mass and preoperative fasting duration were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative bleeding after transurethral enucleation of the prostate.
