The Effect of Perioperative Thermoregulation on Cancer Surgeries: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Owing to the vulnerability of adverse effects of hypothermia, particularly among immunocompromised cancer patients, perioperative thermoregulation is critical. This review presents a comprehensive examination of current thermoregulation practices, including preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. We conducted literature search for relevant articles using PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Google Scholar and Web of Science, published till June 2024 using the keywords, "Perioperative thermoregulation," "cancer surgery," "hypothermia," "normothermia," "surgical site infections," "intraoperative warming techniques," "preoperative warming," "postoperative care," and "patient outcomes". Our review highlights the adverse impact of hypothermia among cancer patients, such as increased surgical complications, impaired immune response, and prolonged recovery times. This review also shines light on the efficacy of various perioperative warming techniques, such as forced-air warming systems and fluid warming methods. Additionally, this review article addresses the challenges associated with perioperative thermoregulation in cancer surgeries and explores potential innovations and future directions in this field.
