Retrospective analysis of factors influencing the self-healing of patients with enterocutaneous fistulas receiving conservative treatment.

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
backgroundEnterocutaneous (EC) fistula incidence has been increasing in China, along with increases in the volume and complexity of surgeries. The conservative treatment strategy has been analyzed to improve the treatment outcomes for patients with EC fistulas and reduce the need for reoperation.
aimTo analyze the clinical data of patients undergoing conservative treatment for EC fistulas and identify the factors that promote self-healing. These findings provide a reference for improving the clinical cure rate of EC fistulas with conservative treatment.
methodsThe clinical data of 91 patients with EC fistulas who underwent conservative treatment were collected. The relationships between the cure rate and characteristics such as age, sex, body mass index, albumin level, primary disease, cause of the fistula, location of the fistula, number of fistulas, nature of the fistula, infection status, diagnostic methods, nutritional support methods, somatostatin therapy, growth hormone therapy, and fibrin glue therapy were analyzed.
resultsA comparison of the basic patient characteristics between the two groups revealed statistically significant differences in primary disease (
conclusionThe cure rate of patients with a single EC fistula can be effectively improved
