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

Very few studies have documented perioperative outcomes of ventral hernia repair in octogenarians. The aim of this study is to report the perioperative and the long-term outcomes of robotic ventral hernia repair (RVHR) in aged 80-89 years patients. From a prospectively maintained database, aged 80-89 years patients who underwent robotic procedures between 2013 and 2018 were analyzed retrospectively including perioperative outcomes and long-term follow-up. Complications were assessed with validated grading systems and index. 21 octogenarians with average age 83.48 were included. Intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair, transabdominal preperitoneal repair, retromuscular repair with or without transversus abdominis release technique were performed without conversion. The average operating time was 150 min. The mean hospital length of stay of all cohorts was 1.24 day. There was a strong correlation between operating time and hospital length of stay. The median follow-up was 23.5 months. According to Clavien-Dindo classification, grade-I and grade-II complications were observed in 23.8% and 28.6% patients, respectively; major complications (grade-III and IV) were not observed.
