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.

Abstract

backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of small intestine arrangement on the bowel function after laparoscopic colectomy.

methodsA total of 160 patients were randomly divided into two groups. The control group received conventional treatment, while the experimental group underwent small intestine arrangement. The primary outcome was the time to initial postoperative gas discharge.

resultsThe experimental group showed a significant difference in the time of initial postoperative gas discharge compared to the control group (45.2 ± 19.7 vs. 54.9 ± 21.8 h, P = 0.004). Additionally, the experimental group had a significantly shorter time to first tolerability of liquid food (64.4(43.0,68.3) vs. 67.5(60.5,86.8) hours, P = 0.005). One case involved the identification of a Meckel's diverticulum and a small intestinal stromal tumor through intervention.

conclusionsArranging the small intestine may promote the postoperative intestinal function and improve the detection of complications, thereby avoiding the potential risk of reoperation. REGISTRATION: NCT05485857.
