How can we deal with stoma supplies in a resource-limited setting? The Golbasi earthquake experience.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: In winter 2023, two earthquakes struck southern and central Turkey, resulting in an estimated 56.000 deaths and more than 100.000 persons with injuries. The management of patients presenting post-earthquake injuries and the usual surgical emergencies was highly challenging in these extremes' conditions. This report presents a home-made temporary solution for ostomy care and supplies in a resource-limited setting. Case presentation: A 72-year-old woman, admitted 9 days after the earthquake, presented with a transverse colonic incarceration in a Morgagni-Larrey parasternal diaphragmatic hernia, associated with Hinchey III peritonitis. Extended right colectomy was performed with right ileostomy and left colostomy. A home-made ostomy was designed using as supplies an empty intravenous perfusion bag and transparent film dressings. This cheap, homemade and ready-to-use stoma supply was used during the first 3 postoperative days, without any leak or peri-ostomy skin irritation. Conclusion: In extreme perioperative condition, in a resource-limited setting, ostomy can be temporary equip using a homemade and ready-to-use stoma supply. This equipment is feasible at a low cost in all condition and fit until definitive ostomy supplies can be provided.
