Stapled versus hand-sewn anastomoses after bowel resection in patients with crohn disease.
Article in BMC surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundAnastomosis configuration is an essential step in treatment to restore continuity of the gastrointestinal tract following bowel resection in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). However, the association between anastomotic type and surgical outcome remains controversial. This retrospective study aimed to compare early postoperative complications and surgical outcome between stapler and handsewn anastomosis after bowel resection in Crohn's disease.
methodsBetween 2001 and 2018, a total of 339 CD patients underwent bowel resection with anastomosis. Patient characteristics, intraoperative data, early postoperative complications, and outcomes were analyzed and compared between two groups of patients. Group 1 consisted of patients with stapler anastomosis and group 2 with handsewn anastomosis.
resultsNo significant difference was found in the incidence of postoperative surgical complications between the stapler and handsewn anastomosis groups (25% versus 24.4%, p = 1.000). Reoperation for complications and postoperative hospital stay were similar between the two groups.
conclusionOur analysis showed that there were no differences in anastomotic leak, nor postoperative complications, mortality, reoperation for operative complications, or postoperative hospital stay between the stapler anastomosis and handsewn anastomosis groups.
