Fig. 2From: Novel nomogram for predicting risk of early postoperative small bowel obstruction after right colectomy for cancerNomogram for predicting risk of early postoperative small bowel obstruction after right colectomy. Locate male or female on the horizontal axis of gender. Draw a line up to the point axis to determine the number of points toward EPSBO the patient should receive. Repeat this process for other horizontal axes, drawing a straight line to the point axis at a time. Then, calculate the sum of points for all risk factors. Draw a straight line down to find out the risk of EPSBOBack to article page
