A dynamic nomogram for predicting postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgery: a prospective study.
Article in BMC anesthesiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe objective of this study was to develop and validate a dynamic nomogram for predicting postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) following laparoscopic procedures.
methodsClinical data were prospectively collected from adult patients undergoing laparoscopic procedures between March 10, 2025, and May 22, 2025. Patient demographics and clinical characteristics were used to develop a dynamic nomogram for predicting PONV. Variable screening and predictor selection were performed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, followed by refinement through multivariable logistic regression to construct the nomogram. The area under the curve (AUC) was used to objectively quantify the discriminative ability of the model. Internal validation was performed using bootstrapping, and model performance was further evaluated using calibration and decision curve analysis (DCA).
resultsOf the 413 patients enrolled, 127 (30.8%) developed PONV within 24 h postoperatively. A nomogram incorporating six predictors was developed. The AUC of the prediction model was 0.704 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.648‒0.759), and internal validation using bootstrapping was 0.728 (95% CI: 0.674‒0.782). The model demonstrated good calibration, and the DCA revealed a satisfactory net benefit for patients when the probability threshold ranged from 0.12 to 0.54. This indicates the model’s clinical utility for supporting personalized decision-making.
conclusionsWe developed a dynamic nomogram for PONV risk prediction in laparoscopic surgery, demonstrating its adequate performance and providing intuitive clinical decision support.
