1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGastrointestinal surgery has disadvantages such as long operation time, extended hospitalization time, and slow postoperative recovery. However, the promotion and clinical application of the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) concept have considerably shortened the hospitalization time of gastrointestinal surgery patients and reduced reactions to surgical stress and the risk of medical complications and readmission. ERAS breaks the conventional operating mode in the field of surgery but introduces great challenges in practice.

aimTo explore the application of ERAS in perioperative patients within the field of gastrointestinal surgery, with a particular focus on investigating the awareness of ERAS among healthcare professionals and the barriers to its implementation.

methodsA retrospective study of medical records of perioperative patients in the gastrointestinal surgery ward of Ningbo No. 2 Hospital from March 2020 to March 2022 was conducted. According to the different nursing modes adopted by patients during the perioperative period, patients were divided into the ERAS group and the control group. The postoperative outcomes of these groups such as the time to first ambulation, the time to first intake of food, and nursing satisfaction were compared. A self-developed questionnaire was used to assess the awareness of ERAS among healthcare professionals, along with a survey identifying barriers to its implementation.

resultsCompared with the control group, the ERAS group demonstrated superior scores across various metrics, with the exception of the readmission rate due to complications within 1 month post-discharge (

conclusionERAS significantly reduces the time to first ambulation and first food intake for patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. Furthermore, the awareness of ERAS among healthcare professionals correlates with their educational background, years of experience, and prior training. ERAS plays a crucial role in expediting patient recovery, improving nursing satisfaction, and optimizing healthcare resources.
