Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04512326 (RISK FACTORS FOR ANASTOMOTIC LEAKAGE FOLLOWING TOTAL OR SUBTOTAL COLECTOMY), which is not on this map. Cited by 53 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

Ischemic colitis is a commonly misunderstood clinical condition. Although the colon is the most common region of ischemia in the gastrointestinal tract, many surgeons have difficulty with diagnosis and treatment of ischemic colitis. The process can occur from either occlusive vascular disease or nonocclusive disease, and can be gangrenous or nongangrenous. Differentiating gangrenous from nongangrenous disease can be a difficult clinical challenge as both sets of patients generally present with abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea. Although the majority of patients have transient ischemia with nongangrenous colitis that can be successfully managed nonoperatively, prompt recognition and surgical intervention is critical in patients with gangrenous colitis. In this article, the diagnosis and treatment of ischemic colitis is reviewed with emphasis on a systematic, evidence-based approach to management.
