Ischemic colitis following infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm treatment: Results from a tertiary medical center.

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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ruptured aneurysm on morbidity and mortality in patients with ischemic colitis (IC) and resection following infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) surgery.
methodsBetween January 2012 and December 2016, patients who underwent resection for ischemic colitis in our clinic were retrospectively reviewed. Data on the ruptured condition of the aneurysm, the emergency or elective form of aneurysm surgery, treatment method for the aneurysm (EVAR-open) were obtained. The patients were compared and divided into two groups as those with ruptured aneurysm and those without.
resultsA total of 275 infrarenal AAA cases were treated by the cardiovascular surgery clinic between January 2012 and December 2016. Fourteen patients (5%) developed ischemic colitis requiring resection. Four (1.8%) patients with EVAR and 10 (17.5%) patients with open surgery were operated because of IC. No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups in terms of demographic data and surgical procedures. The intergroup comparison did not reveal any statistically significant difference among gastrointestinal (GIS) symptoms, the time period until surgery, the involved colon segment, and the surgical procedures performed. The mortality rate in ruptured AAA group was 83.3%, while it was 62.5% in the non-ruptured AAA group. In spite of the fact that the mortality rate was high in the ruptured group, it was not statistically significant (p=0.393).
conclusionIC is a complication of AAA surgery with a high mortality rate. Rupture in abdominal aortic aneurysm increasing mortality in IC patients. This complication with a high mortality rate following open AAA surgery should be noted by surgeons and we believe that the liberal utilization of laparotomy and early intervention in suspected cases will decrease mortality rates.
