The perioperative effect of ERAS protocol in patients with lung cancer: a randomized controlled study.
Trial report in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 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
objectiveTo Explore the Safety and Feasibility of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in the Perioperative Clinical Application for Patients with Lung Cancer.
methodsSixty patients with early-stage lung cancer who underwent uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (UVATS) lobectomy at Shifang People's Hospital were selected and randomly divided into the ERAS group (E group) and the control group (C group). The differences in postoperative recovery and the incidence of complications between the two groups were compared.
resultsThe postoperative pain score of patients in E group was lower than that in C group (P < 0.05). Postoperatively, the levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), white blood cell count (WBC), and percentage of neutrophils (NEUT%) in E group were lower than those in C group (P < 0.05); the time to first ambulation after surgery, duration of drainage, length of hospital stay, and total hospitalization cost in E group were all less than those in C group (P < 0.05). Patient satisfaction in E group was higher (P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in E group was lower than that in C group, showing a trend toward reduction without reaching statistical significance (P > 0.05). No 14-day unplanned readmission or reoperation was found in both groups, and the postoperative quality of life in E group was better (P < 0.05).
conclusionLung cancer patients who undergo UVATS lobectomy and receive perioperative ERAS achieve faster recovery and higher satisfaction.
trial registrationThe study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2500111029) on 23/10/2025.
