1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 remain a surgical challenge when balancing surgical morbidity, functional restoration, and risk of recurrence. Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) placement reduces postoperative wound infections and allows fast patient recovery. Yet, current IPOM techniques do not achieve closure of the midline hernia gap, thereby increasing the risk of persistent mesh bulging with poor abdominal wall function. We propose a novel triple-step hernia repair technique that includes tension-free midline reconstruction. It is achieved through laparoscopic dorsal component separation and laparoscopic suture closure of the midline with a 1.0 polydioxanone suture sling. Combining dorsal abdominal wall component separation, a midline closure with adequate suture strength, and IPOM reinforcement merges the benefits of open and laparoscopic hernia repair. This triple-step technique allows static and functional laparoscopic abdominal wall reconstruction.
