To the editor: is the serum level of reactive oxygen metabolites appropriate for evaluating short-term surgical stress of patients undergoing colectomy?

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
To demonstrate whether reactive oxygen and free radical measuring are appropriate to evaluate short-term surgical stress after laparoscopic colectomy. The subjects consisted of 22 cases (laparoscopic surgery, 16; and laparotomy, 6) that underwent surgery for colon cancer. The reactive oxygen metabolites (ROM) value in the blood were measured perioperatively. The average ROM values immediately prior to surgery, immediately following surgery, and 1 day following surgery were 360.1, 316.0, and 346.7 U.CARR, respectively, meaning that ROM declined immediately following surgery compared with immediately prior to surgery (P < 0.05), while a tendency was observed for these values to increase again 1 day following surgery. In the comparison of pain control 1 day following surgery, a significantly lower value was indicated in the epidural anesthesia group (n = 12) compared with the fentanyl intravenous injection group (n = 10). Moreover, no significant change was observed in the surgical stress level in a comparison of patient background items such as age, sex, and so forth, laparoscopic surgery, and laparotomy. The low-invasiveness of laparoscopic surgery was not indicated in the ROM value 1 day following surgery, probably because pain control offsets the level of surgical stress using this method.
