Risk factors analysis of hypokalemia after radical resection of esophageal cancer and establishment of a nomogram risk prediction model.

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
Objective: This study aimed to explore the risk factors of hypokalemia after radical resection of esophageal cancer (EC) and establish a nomogram risk prediction model to evaluate hypokalemia risk after esophagectomy. Thus, this study provides a reference for the clinical development of intervention measures. Methods: Clinical data of EC patients who underwent radical surgery from January 2020 to November 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively collected. The relevant variables were screened using multivariate logistic regression analysis with IBM SPSS 25.0 and R 4.2.0 software, and a nomogram for predicting hypokalemia risk was established. The established nomogram was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC), calibration, and decision curves. The model was also internally validated by 1000 bootstrap resampling methods. Results: After radical EC resection, the incidence rate of hypokalemia in 213 patients was 19.2% (41/213). The hemoglobin levels, total serum protein, serum albumin, calcium ion concentration, direct bilirubin, prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were related ( Conclusion: The prediction model for hypokalemia risk with individualized scores based on the patient's white blood cell count, serum albumin level, direct bilirubin, and operation time can screen out high-risk patients who might develop hypokalemia. It is of certain reference value for clinicians to screen and follow up with patients with emphasis and to formulate preoperative and postoperative intervention strategies.
