Pregnancy outcomes after stoma surgery for inflammatory bowel disease: The results of a retrospective multicentre audit.
Article in Colorectal disease : the official journal of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
aimThere is a paucity of data on pregnancies in women with stomas due to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to assess stoma, IBD, obstetric and neonatal outcomes in pregnant patients with IBD and a stoma.
methodMulticentre retrospective audit in 15 UK hospitals. Pregnancy, stoma and neonatal outcomes were elicited from routinely collected hospital records.
resultsData on 82 pregnancies from 77 patients (mean age 31.4 years, 60.9% Crohn's disease, 35.4% ulcerative colitis, 3.6% IBD-U) were included. Stoma types included ileostomy in 72 (88%) and colostomy in 10 (12%) women. There was one reported miscarriage, one still birth and 80 live births. Delivery occurred in 58 cases by caesarean section (CS), of which 44 were performed electively and 14 as emergency CS. The overall CS rate was 73%. Premature delivery before week 37 occurred in 19% and birth weight <2,500 g in 17%. Significant stoma related complications occurred during 20 (24%) pregnancies and included stoma prolapse in nine cases (2 required surgery), parastomal hernias in three cases (2 required surgery) and small bowel obstructions in seven cases (3 required surgery).
conclusionsPregnancy for women who previously had stoma formation for IBD is associated with higher rates of caesarean section and stoma complications. Future prospective studies should capture data, including patient reported outcomes, to gather a full picture on the impact of pregnancy after stoma surgery for IBD.
