Subgroup analysis by approach (open compared with laparoscopic) for outcomes of surgical site infections, risk-adjusted against chronic kidney disease and serum albumin class prior to surgery
| Complication | MBP only group | MBP+OABP group | Adjusted NNTa | Adjusted OR (95% CI) | P-value |

| Surgical site infections, n (%): | 13 (12.6) | 1 (0.9) | 8.1 | 0.061 (0.008, 0.482) | 0.008 |
| Superficial | 8 (7.8) | 1 (0.9) | 14.6 | 0.111 (0.013, 0.916) | 0.041 |
