Microdialysis in Postoperative Monitoring of Gastrointestinal Organ Viability: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in World journal of surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
backgroundMicrodialysis is a technique for continuous measurement of extracellular substances. It may be used to monitor tissue viability. The clinical implications of using microdialysis as a tool in gastrointestinal surgery have yet to be defined. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical significance of microdialysis with special attention to different markers measured to predict the clinical outcome of surgical patients.
methodsEmbase, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library were searched systematically for human studies written in English. Study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment were performed independently by two authors. We included studies in which the microdialysis technique was used for postoperative monitoring of patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. To be eligible, studies had to compare patients with and without postoperative complications.
resultsTwenty-six studies were included in this review. MINORS score ranged from 3 to 12 (median 10.5). Most studies showed that levels of biomarkers obtained by microdialysis correlated with the postoperative clinical course. Lactate, pyruvate, glucose, and glycerol were the most frequently measured biomarkers. Several studies found that changes in biomarkers in complicated patients preceded symptoms of complications and/or changes in conventional paraclinical methods of postoperative monitoring.
conclusionsStudies show that microdialysis may have the potential to become a tool in postoperative surveillance of surgical patients. Larger randomized studies are needed to define the clinical implications of microdialysis.
