The effect of spring diameter on porcine ileal distraction enterogenesis.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeSpring-mediated distraction enterogenesis has proven to be successful for intestinal lengthening. We aimed to evaluate the effect of spring diameter mismatch on intestinal adaptation.
methodsJuvenile mini-Yucatan pigs underwent placement of compressed nitinol springs with diameter of 10, 11, or 12 mm into the ileal lumen. Pigs were euthanized on postoperative day 7. The lengths, histology, total area of blood vessels, and enteric ganglia were evaluated.
resultsAll spring groups exhibited significant ileal lengthening. Across the different diameters, spring-expanded segments were similar in terms of ileal lengthening, crypt height, muscular thickness, blood vessels, and enteric ganglia area.
conclusionSpring-mediated distraction enterogenesis is successful in the porcine ileum. A smaller diameter spring is as effective as a larger diameter spring in lengthening the ileum. Springs of varying diameters result in comparable structural changes in the ileum.
