A novel double-balloon catheter device for fully endoluminal intestinal lengthening.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
objectiveDistraction enterogenesis may provide a novel therapy for short bowel syndrome (SBS). Previously described methods have relied upon isolated intestinal segments or transmural fixation. Our objective was to develop a novel, fully endoluminal device, permitting placement and removal through an enteral stoma or orifice.
methodsA flexible device was designed consisting of two latex balloons mounted on coaxial catheters. The inner catheter allowed longitudinal force transmission from an external spring. Yorkshire pigs underwent jejunal Roux limb creation with device placement via jejunostomy. Balloons were inflated to 52 mmHg without significant reduction in bowel perfusion as measured by laser Doppler. The device was explanted after 7 days.
resultsDistracted bowel achieved an increase in length of 26.1 ± 6.1 % vs nondistracted fed bowel. As the device resided in unfed bowel, a 66.7 ± 14.5% increase vs unfed bowel was noted. These corresponded to a gain of 6.3 ± 2.3 cm (0.9 ± 0.3 cm/day) and 12.9 ± 7.6 cm (1.8 ± 1.1 cm/day), respectively. Attachment sites demonstrated occasional epithelial sloughing with no balloon-associated perforation.
conclusionA novel double-balloon catheter device allows for fully endoluminal distraction enterogenesis. This approach may allow development of clinically applicable technology for the treatment of patients with SBS.
