Modified technique of extraperitoneal colostomy without incision of the posterior rectus sheath.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Extraperitoneal colostomy is a widely used technique during abdominoperineal resection (APR) operation for lower rectal cancer. This technique has been reported to be effective to prevent the postoperative parastomal hernia in some retrospective studies, however, there is still a certain incidence of parastomal hernia. A modification of the extraperitoneal colostomy technique is described in this paper that keeps posterior rectal sheath intact instead of having a conventional incision, to further reduce the risk of parastomal hernia. Until now, this modified technique has been performed in 15 patients, no occurrence of parastomal hernia was observed.
