Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Recent Findings in Colectomy Described by Researchers from University of Picardie Jules Verne (Is a Defunctioning Stoma Necessary After Left Colectomy In High-risk Patients for Anastomotic Leak?)
2023 FEB 01 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at NewsRx Medical Devices Daily -- Research findings on Surgery - Colectomy are discussed
Article Description
Introduction: Left colectomy is associated with a 7% risk of anastomotic leak. In 2011, a prediction score for AL [the colon leakage score (CLS)] was developed. The aim was to evaluate the impact of a defunctioning stoma on AL and its consequences after left colectomy in high-risk patients. Patients: From January 2012 to June 2019, high-risk patients who underwent a left colectomy with anastomosis were included in this retrospective, single-center study. Two groups of patients were defined: patients undergoing a left colectomy with an anastomosis without a defunctioning stoma (no-stoma group) and those with a defunctioning stoma (stoma group). The primary endpoint was the rate of anastomotic leakage. Results: Ninety-two patients were included in this study. The anastomotic leakage rate was 16.4% in the no-stoma group and 21.6% in the stoma group (P=0.5). A conservative approach was applied to 11.2% in the no-stoma group and 50% in the stoma group (P=0.1). The severe morbidity rate was 14.5% in the no-stoma group and 21.6% in the stoma group (P=0.4). The rate of unplanned admissions was 7% in the no-stoma group and 27% in the stoma group (P=0.01). Conclusion: A defunctioning stoma does not appear to reduce the rate of AL in high-risk patients, but its impact on the management of AL remains unclear.
