MIEO: a micro-invasive endoscopic operation port system for transluminal interventions-an acute and survival porcine 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
backgroundA reliable and sterile access through the intestinal wall to ease flexible endoscopic transluminal interventions is still appealing but lacks a suitable port system.
methodsIn a granted industry cooperation, we developed the MIEO-Port, a flexible three components overtube system that provides a temporary hermetic sealing of the intestinal wall to allow endoscopic disinfection and manipulation to gain access to the abdominal cavity. The port features an innovative head part which allows for coupling the port to the intestinal wall by vacuum suction and for controlled jetting the isolated intestinal surface with a disinfectant. The device was tested in vivo in 6 pigs for acute and long-term usability. All animal tests were approved by the local ethics committee.
resultsIn the acute experiment, the port system supported sealed endoscopic mucosa resection and transluminal cholecystectomy. In the survival study on 5 animals, the MIEO-Port proved its reliability after transcolonic peritoneoscopy. In one animal, a port dislocation occurred after extensive retroperitoneal preparation, one animal revealed bacterial contamination at necropsy; however, all animals showed a favourable course over ten days and offered no signs of peritonitis or abscedation during post-mortem examination. DISCUSSION: To the best of our knowledge, the MIEO-Port system is the first device to provide a reliable and sterile flexible access to the peritoneal cavity that can be used throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract regardless of the access route and which combines hermetic sealing with local sterilization. Further studies are warranted.
