Successful treatment of non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia with indocyanine green fluorescence and open-abdomen management.

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
Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI), which can lead to multifocal and segmental intestinal necrosis without demonstrable occlusion in the main mesenteric artery, is associated with extremely high mortality. Because these intestinal ischemic changes can progress, it is difficult to make a definitive determination intraoperatively as to whether resection of damaged intestine is required. A 62-year-old man who underwent esophagectomy for advanced cervicothoracic esophageal cancer complained of severe abdominal pain on postoperative day 4. Enhanced computed tomography revealed pneumatosis intestinalis in the wall of the small bowel. Emergency laparotomy revealed ischemia in segments of the small intestine suspicious for NOMI. Intraoperative evaluation of the mesenteric and bowel circulation was performed under indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence. Although the ischemic bowel segments were visible, open-abdomen management was undertaken so that mesenteric and bowel circulation could be reexamined 24 h later. During the second-look operation, the small intestine was able to be preserved because intestinal perfusion was confirmed on revisualization under ICG fluorescence. The present case demonstrated that open-abdomen management and repeat visualization under ICG fluorescence are effective in preserving damaged intestine during surgery for NOMI.
