Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Liquiband Fix8™) for mesh fixation: learning experience and short-medium term results.
Article in Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
aimThe purpose of this study was to evaluate a novel hernia repair glue fixation device (LiquibandFix8™) in laparoscopic IPOM repair for incisional hernias.
methodsAll ventral incisional hernia patients requiring laparoscopic IPOM repair were included in the study. A retrospective review of the data was performed.
results137 patients underwent 138 laparoscopic IPOM repairs for incisional hernias using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (LiquibandFix8™) for mesh fixation over a 40-month period by a single experienced laparoscopic surgeon. There were 70 males and 67 females, median age 54 years (range 23-80 years). Defects were predominantly midline n = 123/138 (89%) and were closed by transfascial sutures in 126/138 (91%) prior to IPOM repair (IPOM plus). Mesh fixation was successful in all 138 repairs. Synthetic meshes (Symbotex™ [polyester/collagen composite, Medtronic] n = 80, and Dynamesh
conclusionThis retrospective study shows that mesh fixation in laparoscopic IPOM using cyanoacrylate glue with the Liquiband Fix8™ device is feasible, safe, easy to learn, and is associated with a low risk of seroma, hernia recurrence and chronic pain with short-medium term follow-up.
