C-reactive protein values after surgery for inflammatory bowel disease: is it still a good marker for intra-abdominal complication? A retrospective cohort study of 347 procedures : CRP after inflammatory bowel disease surgery.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeC-reactive protein (CRP) is a useful predictive test to early detect abdominal complication after colorectal surgery. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is responsible for chronic inflammation and abnormal basal CRP that could influence the interest of its management after abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate CRP as an indicator of postoperative complication in a specific IBD population.
methodsRetrospective study of patients undergoing ileocolic resection or ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for IBD between 2012 and 2019.
resultsIleocolic resection represents 242 patients and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis 105 patients. CRP was significantly higher at an early (105.2 ± 56.0 vs 128.1 ± 69.8; p = 0.008) and late stage (112.9 ± 72.8 vs 185.3 ± 111.5; p < 0.0001) for patients having an intra-abdominal complication. A BMI > 25 kg/m
conclusionCRP is a useful predictive marker to detect abdominal complication after surgery in IBD population. Measurement of CRP can help to reduce hospitalization stay and orientate towards complementary examinations.
