Effects of intravenous anesthesia and inhalation anesthesia on postoperative inflammatory markers in patients with esophageal cancer: a retrospective study.
Article in BMC anesthesiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundInflammatory markers have been confirmed to be associated with the prognosis of cancer patients. In this study, we compared the impacts of intravenous anesthesia and inhalation anesthesia on the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) after esophageal cancer surgery.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the electronic medical records of patients who underwent esophagectomy from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016. Patients respectively received total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) or inhalational anesthesia (INHA). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was employed to minimize differences. The Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal Wallis test was utilized to compare the effect of the two groups on postoperative NLR, PLR and SII.
resultsA total of 519 patients who had undergone esophageal cancer resection were recruited in this study, among whom 339 patients were eligible (TIVA group, n = 201, INHA group, n = 138). After IPTW, there was no statistically significant difference in NLR, PLR, and SII on the first postoperative day(P = 0.1951), (P = 0.5611), (P = 0.9684) and on the third postoperative day(P = 0.5961), (P = 0.1804), (P = 0.9653) between the two groups.
conclusionsIn conclusion, there was no significant difference in NLR, PLR and SII between intravenous anesthesia or inhalational anesthesia. TIVA is not superior to INHA in reducing the perioperative inflammatory response of esophageal cancer. SYNOPSIS: Inflammatory markers play an important role in the recurrence, metastasis and survival of tumor patients after surgery. In this study, we will compare the effects of different anesthesia methods on inflammatory markers.
