Usefulness of repair using Hem-o-lok™ for peritoneal tear as a complication of totally extraperitoneal repair: Case series.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionPeritoneal tear (PT) is a frequent intraoperative event during totally extraperitoneal repair (TEP). We aimed to introduce our surgical technique for PT during TEP to avoid the more difficult TEP procedure.MethodsOne surgeon with 10 years of experience performed our TEP method in 147 TEP cases from January 2012 to June 2019. We investigated the repair time of each repair technique using endoscopic suturing (suturing group, SG) and endoscopic Hem-o-lok stapling (CG).
resultsTwenty-three (15.6%) PT cases occurred as TEP complication. The mean repair times (with standard deviation) of the PT were 16.2 ± 13 and 7.6 ± 7.0 min in the SG and CG, respectively, indicating a significant difference (P = 0.043). The repair time of the PT using Hem-o-lok (Teleflex, Wayne, PA, USA) stapling was shorter than that using endoscopic suturing, which was significantly different despite the length of the PT.
conclusionHem-o-lok stapling is feasible in case of PT during TEP.
