Does using comprehensive preoperative bowel preparation offer any advantage for urinary diversion using ileum? A meta-analysis.

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
purposeThe aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of comprehensive bowel preparation to that of limited bowel preparation in prevention of postoperative complications in elective urinary diversion surgery by using ileum.
methodsLiterature search of PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library was done to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies involving comparison of postoperative complications after comprehensive bowel preparation and limited bowel preparation. A meta-analysis was carried out to distinguish overall differences between the two groups.
resultsOur literature search yielded two randomized controlled trials and two cohort studies, involving a total of 346 patients, which met our inclusion criteria. There was no significant difference between the comprehensive bowel preparation and limited bowel preparation in wound infection [relative risk (RR) 95 % confidence interval (CI), 1.05(0.46-2.40); P = 0.86], mortality [RR 95 % CI, 1.06 (0.32-3.55); P = 0.76], ileus [RR 95 % CI, 0.86 (0.37, 2.00); P = 0.40], sepsis [RR 95 % CI, 0.71 (0.20, 2.52); P = 0.78], anastomotic leakage [RR 95 % CI, 0.81 (0.15, 4.21); P = 0.83], wound dehiscence [RR 95 % CI, 0.92 (0.40, 2.13); P = 0.67], peritonitis [RR 95 % CI, 0.64 (0.08, 5.10); P = 0.63] or fistula [RR 95 % CI, 0.71 (0.18,2.75); P = 0.63].
conclusionsThe limited evidence available demonstrated that the use of comprehensive bowel preparation for urinary diversion surgery using ileum does not offer any significant advantage over limited bowel preparation. Future work should target more high-quality RCTs to confirm this.
