Incidence and risk factors contributing to ileus after posterior approach for lumbar surgery: a retrospective study.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: This retrospective study aimed to identify the incidence and possible predictive factors associated with ileus after posterior approach for lumbar surgery. Patients and methods: A total of 267 patients who underwent a posterior approach for lumbar surgery between 2012 and 2020 were analyzed in this study. The differences between the two groups and the risk factors of ileus were explored. Results: Patients' characteristics showed no significant differences between the two groups. This revealed that gender, age, smoking, hypertension, and diabetes were not associated with postoperative ileus (POI). Patients with POI would increase length of hospital stay significantly ( Conclusion: Postoperative ileus can increase the length of hospital stay significantly. Operative segment, postoperative blood potassium, and previous abdominal surgery were significantly associated with POI, which should be highlighted in the preoperative evaluation.
