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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeA temporary loop stoma is often created after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery. Peristomal adhesions may make stoma closure into a complicated operation. We demonstrated how to place the SurgiWrap® adhesion barrier film and evaluated the peristomal adhesion severity and feasibility of stoma closure.

methodsThis is a retrospective case-control study. Patients were divided into a study group (placement of adhesion barrier film) and a control group (no placement). Patient characteristics, operative data, and severity of adhesions were recorded. We used logistic regression to probe the association between the variables and the adhesion severity.

resultsA total of 180 patients were identified with 60 in the study group and 120 in the control group. In the study group, the adhesion severity (p < 0.001), operative time (p = 0.025), and time to flatus (p = 0.042) are significantly reduced. In logistic regression analysis, placement of the film (p < 0.001), neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (p = 0.041), and time interval between stoma creation and closure ≧ 12 weeks (p = 0.038) are three significant factors influencing the peristomal adhesion.

conclusionThe placement of SurgiWrap® adhesion barrier film around the loop stoma after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery may reduce the peristomal adhesion severity and facilitate the stoma closure in terms of operative time and time to flatus.
