1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSome studies have reported that adhesion prevention barriers (APBs) reduce adhesion after abdominal surgery; however, evidence showing that APBs reduce the incidence of postoperative small bowel obstruction (SBO), one of the most serious complications after abdominal surgery, is little. One concern is that APBs are usually applied only under the midline incision, although adhesion can occur at any place in the peritoneum where an incision is made during surgery. INTERCEED METHODS/

designThis study is a prospective, multicenter, observational study conducted in Japan. The primary end point is the incidence of postoperative SBO 2 years after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery. The secondary end points include whether the site of the application of INTERCEED DISCUSSION: This is the first study to assess whether the placement of APBs affects the incidence of SBO. The study results may lead to a subsequent randomized study.
