Outcomes and exposures defined heterogeneously across studies, limiting comparison and synthesis
Arbitrary, differing categories of glucose values rather than glucose as a continuous variable, limiting combination of results

More notes

Study populations and surgery types varied considerably; few studies in day surgery and specific surgical disciplines
Populations often mixed surgery types, indications and urgency; combining low- and high-risk patients may obscure harms or benefits
