Study of the prognostic factor of the colon perforation case with the pan-peritonitis that needed emergency surgery: a single-center observational study.

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
aimWe divided patients treated with emergency surgery for pan-peritonitis caused by colon perforation into the survival group and the death group based on outcome at postoperative day 30 and examined the prognostic factors for colon perforation.
methodsThe prognostic factors for colon perforation in 76 consecutive patients who underwent emergency surgery at Kansai Medical University Hospital (Hirakata, Japan) from April 2011 to March 2017 were investigated based on outcome at postoperative day 30.
resultsThe average age of the 76 patients (41 men/35 women) was 73 years, and the causative disease of colon perforation was malignant/benign in 18/58 cases, with ileocecal perforation site in 8 cases, ascending colon in 6, transverse colon in 2, descending colon in 4, sigmoid colon in 49, and rectum in 7. All patients received laparotomy with irrigation drainage, and 9 patients (11.8%) were dead at 30 days. Upon comparing the 67 survivors with the 9 dead patients, we recognized a significant difference on preoperative spread of ascites on computed tomography (CT) (
conclusionIn our hospital, the preoperative acute DIC score was found to be a prognostic factor for colon perforation accompanied by pan-peritonitis. Appropriate evaluation of the spread of ascites on the preoperative CT might also help predict patient prognosis.
