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
objectiveTo explore the decision-making factors for defunctioning ileostomy (DI) after rectal cancer surgery and to analyze the impact of the DI on perioperative outcomes.
methodsA retrospective case-control study was conducted that included rectal cancer patients who underwent low anterior resection from January 2013 to December 2023. Among them, 33 patients did not undergo DI but with anastomotic leakage (AL) after surgery, and 1030 patients were without AL. Preoperative, operative and tumor factors between these two groups were compared to explore the decision-making factors for DI. Meanwhile, the differences of perioperative outcomes between the DI group of 381 cases and non-DI group of 701 cases were compared.
resultsFor preoperative factors, the proportions of male patients and preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in the AL with non-DI group were greater than those in the non-AL group (p < 0.05); for operative factors, the proportion of patients in the AL with non-DI group with a surgical time > 180 min were greater (p < 0.05); for tumor factors, the proportion of T3-4 stage was higher in the AL with non-DI group (p < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis revealed that male sex and preoperative CRT were the independent risk factors affecting DI. For perioperative outcomes, the DI did not reduce the incidence of all and symptomatic AL and non-AL postoperative complications (p > 0.05) but with 12.07% stoma-related complications, and increase hospitalization costs (p < 0.05); however, it can shorten the postoperative hospital stay, pelvic drainage tube removal time, and reduce the anal tube placement rate and readmission rate (all p < 0.05).
conclusionMale patients and preoperative CRT were the independent risk factors affect the decision of DI in our study, and DI can shorten the postoperative hospitalization, pelvic drainage tube removal time, and decrease the anal tube placement rate and readmission rate during the perioperative period but with a higher economic cost.
