Successful treatment of giant multiple enteroatmospheric fistulas in an extremely premature infant using staged procedures. A case report and literature review.
Article in Journal of surgical 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
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains a leading cause of morbidity in extremely low birth weight neonates. We report a complex surgical management of a 560 g preterm infant with NEC complicated by intestinal perforation, enteroatmospheric fistula, and prolonged open abdomen. Management included negative pressure wound therapy combined with stoma bag application, prolonged total parenteral nutrition, and delayed reconstruction using multiple anastomoses and tube stomas. Final abdominal closure was achieved with absorbable mesh and skin flaps. Despite prolonged hospitalization and multiple complications, enteral autonomy was ultimately achieved. This case highlights the challenges of managing NEC-related enteroatmospheric fistulas in extremely low birth weight infants and supports the use of negative pressure wound therapy and staged reconstruction to preserve bowel length and avoid short gut syndrome.
