Forest plot of the effect of goal-directed therapy (GDT) in protocol group versus controls on the rate of postoperative complications. The pooled risk difference is in favor of GDT group [pooled risk difference GDT vs. controls (95% CI) = − 0.10 (− 0.14, − 0.07); Chi2 = 30.97, p value < 0.00001; I2 (95% CI) = 19% (0–52.1%); bias assessment funnel plot is reported in Additional file 1: Figure S2]
