1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIntraabdominal adhesions increase the incidence and length of surgical complications. Many anti-adhesive agents have been used for this purpose, but no definitive solution has yet been found. Studies on the prevention and reduction of anastomotic leakage, therefore, remain up to date. This study aimed to determine the effects of Rosmarinus Officinalis extract on colon anastomosis as a surgical model, its antiadhesive activity, and its impact on wound healing in the laparotomy site simultaneously to facilitate the clinical application of Rosmarinus Officinalis extract.

methodsThe rats were divided into two groups of seven rats each. Group C (Control): Laparotomy with colon anastomosis + 2 mL isotonic solution. Group R (Rosmarinus officinalis): Laparotomy + colon anastomosis, + 2 mL of 2% rosmarinus officinalis. Macroscopic adhesion scoring was performed and recorded. The tensile strength of the wound was assessed using tissue samples obtained from the incision line. From the incision line, tissue samples were obtained for histopathological investigation and tissue hydroxyproline levels. Anastomotic burst pressure was measured from the segment of colon anastomosis.

resultsIn terms of Macroscopic adhesion score, there was no statistically significant difference between Group C and Group R (p=1.000). The mean Wound tensile strength value of Group R was significantly lower than that of Group C (p=0.003). In terms of mean Anastomotic burst pressure, there was no statistically significant difference between Group C and Group R (p=0.078).

conclusionAccording to the findings of our investigation, peritoneal administration of Rosmarinus Officinalis extract in the early postoperative period may increase the risk of evisceration in the abdominal incision site.
