[Which abdominal incisions predispose for incisional hernias?].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Incisional hernias are the most common long-term complication after laparotomy with a cumulative incidence up to 20%. Generally all injuries to the integrity of the abdominal wall can result in the development of an incisional hernia. Midline and transverse incisions cause similar hernia rates. By selection of a sufficient closure technique and appropriate suture material as well as taking appropriate accompanying treatment (antibiotic prophylaxis) and risk factors into consideration, surgery can reduce surgical site infections, wound dehiscence and incisional hernias. Results from randomized controlled trials have not yet demonstrated a superiority of laparoscope-assisted procedures compared to laparotomy for the prevention of incisional hernias. Access through natural orifices and removal of specimens through the same approach (NOTES) may prevent incisional hernias completely. The approach to the abdominal cavity has to be chosen according to the underlying disease of the patient, the anatomical conditions and further circumstances (e.g. urgency, extensibility, preservation of function of the abdominal wall and safety).
