Risk factors of delayed extubation after esophagectomy in the surgical intensive care unit.

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
Background: Esophageal cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract, for which esophagectomy, a high-risk surgery, is the main treatment. Certain features of esophageal cancer surgery may increase the uncertainty of postoperative extubation, and inappropriate timing for extubation after esophagectomy may result in serious complications. This study aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors of delayed extubation after esophagectomy in the surgical intensive care unit (SICU). Methods: The study population included patients with esophageal cancer who were admitted to the SICU after undergoing transthoracic esophagectomy in one center from July 2023 to December 2023. In the SICU, patients who were extubated within 90 minutes were assigned to the early-extubation group, and those extubated after more than 90 minutes were assigned to the delayed-extubation group. The demographic characteristics, preoperative variables, intraoperative parameters, and postoperative variables were collected. Results: Of the 117 enrolled patients, there were 49 (41.9%) patients in delayed-extubation group, and compared to those in the early-extubation group, these patients had a longer operative duration (254.41±76.41 Conclusions: Delayed extubation after esophagectomy was found to be common in the SICU and remained an important factor contributing to the increase in the incidence of adverse events and medical costs. Intraoperative colloid infusion and urine volume were associated with delayed extubation.
