Peroperative contamination and anastomotic leakage after resection for left colon stenosis. An experimental study in the rat.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 1990. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In this experimental study the effect of peroperative faecal soiling on immediate postoperative anastomotic leakage after resection and primary anastomosis of a left colon obstruction was evaluated. Faecal soiling was quantified by a standardized irrigation of the abdominal cavity and then culturing of the fluid. An increased peroperative soiling was found after resection of a stenosis compared to resection of a non-stenotic bowel. Anastomotic complications were correlated to the degree of bacterial contamination and a breakpoint of 10(4) CFU/ml was found. Immediate postoperative leakage, tested with the bacteria Serratia marcescens, was not increased in the stenosis group. Thus, peroperative bacterial contamination seems to be one important factor in developing anastomotic complications after resection of colonic obstruction while an immediate leakage of bacteria through the anastomosis seems to be less important.
