[Indications for surgical treatment of diverticular disease].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe correct medical indications are the fundamental decision process for the surgical treatment and ensuring the quality.
objectiveDescription of the indications for surgical treatment of the various types of diverticular disease according to the current level of evidence. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe narrative review is based on current national and international guidelines and a selective literature search.
resultsThere are basically three main indications for resection of the sigmoid colon. 1) Prophylactic for avoidance of complications after successful conservative treatment of acute complicated diverticulitis with macroabscess formation and high risk of recurrence (classification of diverticular disease, CDD, type 2b). 2) In patients with persistent symptoms and impaired quality of life resection of the sigmoid colon of various types (CDD types 1-3) can effectively enable a significant improvement in the quality of life and is therefore to be recommended in cases of individually acceptable perioperative risks. 3) Indications for urgent resection of the sigmoid colon are present for free perforation or failure of conservative treatment.
conclusionThe indications for surgery should be defined by the type of diverticular disease, the aim of surgical treatment, the evaluation of the efficacy of surgical treatment in comparison to conservative treatment and an individual appraisal of the risks.
