[Prevention and treatment of surgical site infections in abdominal surgery].
Review in Chirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
Postoperative surgical site infections after abdominal surgery are a relevant problem for patients and healthcare systems. Alongside pneumonia and urinary tract infections, surgical site infections are among the most common nosocomial infections in these patients. While the patient-related risk factors are mostly difficult to influence in the short-term, there are some modifiable, surgery-related risk factors (e.g., duration of surgery, sterile technique, blood loss) as well as various perioperative preventive measures with different evidence levels (e.g., skin disinfection, intravenous perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis, use of wound edge protectors, prophylactic wound irrigation, change of instruments and gloves before wound closure, triclosan-coated suture material, negative pressure dressing). Depending on the severity and depth of the infection, the treatment includes opening of the wound, surgical revision with fascial debridement/negative pressure wound therapy or the drainage of intra-abdominal abscesses and appropriate intravenous antibiotics. A relaparotomy for exploration and lavage is indicated in cases of generalized peritonitis.
