Beneficiary Effect of Fibrin Glue on Healing of Ileoileal Anastomoses in Rats.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
BACKGROUND/
aimIntestinal anastomosis' integrity is crucial in surgery. This study aimed to investigate whether fibrin glue (FG) (a fibrin sealant containing human factor XII and fibrinogen) has a positive effect on the healing and the integrity of the ileoileal anastomosis in rats. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty Wistar rats underwent enterotomy, ileoileal anastomosis and divided into four groups (A: complete anastomosis-no FG, B: complete anastomosis-FG, C: incomplete anastomosis-no FG, D: incomplete anastomosis-FG). Data included leak, adhesions, bursting pressure of the anastomosis, neoangiogenesis, and hydroxyproline levels.
resultsAngiogenesis was significantly higher in group B compared to group A (p=0.019). There were no significant differences between groups A and B regarding adhesions, hydroxyproline, and bursting pressure (p=0.500, p=0.158 and p=0.829, respectively). Hydroxyproline levels were higher in group D compared to C, but did not reach significance (p=0.098).
conclusionFibrin glue has a positive effect on ileoileal anastomoses. It is not entirely clear whether this effect is due to mechanical support or to the facilitation of the healing process or both. Further research is needed before FG can be applied to humans.
