Skin bridge loop stoma: outcome in 45 patients in comparison with stoma made on a plastic rod.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 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 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundLoop stoma reduces the complications related to anastomotic leak. The skin bridge loop stoma is a recently described technique with many potential advantages over the current technique involving a plastic rod. Our experience shows early results (3 weeks after surgery) comparing skin bridge and plastic rod stoma creation.
methodsIn 45 patients operated from January 2016 to December 2018, a loop ileostomy was performed with the skin bridge technique. We compared functional results with a prospective series of 45 patients on which ileostomy was performed on a plastic rod. The report of the routine stoma care visit at 7 and 15 days was compared, as well as the "Stoma quality of life" questionnaire when available.
resultsWe observed more inflammatory changes of the skin around the stoma in the group with a plastic rod (33 vs 10 patients). The patient-reported evaluation of quality of life showed a better quality of life in skin bridge group. The rate of exchanged stoma wafers was 2.6 vs 5.2 per week in the skin bridge group (p < 0.05).
conclusionsThe skin bridge stoma creation resulted in better early management of the stoma, better adhesion of the stoma appliances, and better quality of life of the patient. As an increased number of stoma appliances are required in the early postoperative period, the economic burden of this treatment is relevant in relation to the major number of medical equipment used in the early period.
