Is Hartmann's Pouch an Option in the Management of Acute Severe Ulcerative Colitis?
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 surgical management of remnant rectosigmoid after subtotal colectomy with end ileostomy for acute severe ulcerative colitis remains controversial with respect to the need to perform sigmoidostomy or Hartmann's pouch. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate whether Hartmann's pouch may be a safe option.
methodsThirty-eight Hartmann's pouches were performed between January 2003 and December 2015. We looked at morbidity (with a focus on the occurrence of pelvic sepsis and leakage of the rectal stump) and the rate of restored intestinal continuity.
resultsNineteen patients had surgical complications. Seven had an intra-abdominal collection, only one of which was in the pelvis, and the patient had to be reoperated. Only one patient had a reopening of the rectal stump, which was revealed by rectal bleeding. Twenty-six patients (68.4%) underwent further proctectomy with ileal J-pouch anal anastomosis with no difficulty in localizing or mobilizing the rectal stump and no major surgical complications.
conclusionsHartmann's pouch may be considered in patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis, with low rates of morbidity and pelvic sepsis. The restoration of intestinal continuity is possible after this procedure without any special difficulty.
