Comparison of clinical outcomes between remodified Hanley procedure and modified Hanley procedure for high complex horseshoe fistula: a retrospective study.

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
backgroundTreating high horseshoe anal fistula (HHAF) with the modified Halley procedure (MHP) often falls short when focusing solely on deep postanal space (DPAS) drainage. Our study underscores the significance of addressing deep posterior intersphincteric space (DPIS) drainage, prompting MHP modifications.
methodsWe studied consecutive patients with HHAF treated with either MHP or remodified-MHP (Re-MHP) at Ningbo Medical Center of Lihuili Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021. Postoperative outcomes, encompassing complications, cure rates, pain, anal incontinence, and quality of life, were retrospectively assessed.
resultsCure rates for MHP and Re-MHP were 95.3% (41/43) and 82.1% (32/39), respectively, without statistical significance (χ
conclusionSimultaneously enhancing DPAS and DPIS drainage in Re-MHP can enhance the cure rates of HHAF patients while preserving minimally invasive attributes.
