Effect of one-stitch method of temporary ileostomy on the surgical outcomes and complications after laparoscopic low anterior resection in rectal cancer patients: a propensity score matching analysis.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe purpose of this current study was to explore whether one-stitch method (OM) of temporary ileostomy influenced the surgical outcomes after laparoscopic low anterior resection (LLAR).
methodsWe retrospectively identified rectal cancer (RC) patients who underwent LLAR plus temporary ileostomy in a single teaching hospital from Jan 2011 to June 2023. According to the different methods of ileostomy, the patients were divided into the OM group and the traditional method (TM) group. A propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to eliminate bias and compare the surgical outcomes.
resultsA total of 469 RC patients were included in this study. There were 57 patients in the OM group and 412 patients in the TM group. After 1:1 PSM, there were 57 patients in each group, and no significant difference was found in baseline information (P > 0.05). In terms of surgical outcomes of primary RC surgery, we found that patients in the OM group had shorter operation time (P < 0.01), less blood loss (P < 0.01), and shorter postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.01) than in the TM group after PSM. Moreover, there was no significant difference in both overall complications and stoma-related complications. As for the outcomes of stoma reversal surgery, patients in the OM group had shorter postoperative hospital stay (P = 0.002) than in the TM group before PSM. However, no significant difference was found after PSM (P > 0.05).
conclusionThe OM of temporary ileostomy was easier, more effective and time-saving than the TM, which did not increase the incidence of both postoperative complications and stoma-related complications.
