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

We present the case of a 73-year-old man with a longstanding, giant inguinoscrotal hernia and hydrocele treated by an open approach, complicated intra-operatively by loss of domain leading to cardiorespiratory arrest. Surgery involved a midline approach by the general surgeons. Protruding viscera were mobilised, freed from adhesions, and returned to the abdominal cavity with closure of the internal ring, followed by reconstruction of the penis and scrotum by the plastic surgery and urology teams. Following abdominal closure, the patient developed severe cardiorespiratory instability attributed to large fluid shifts and increased intra-abdominal pressure due to loss of domain. The abdomen was therefore left open, and an ABThera negative pressure therapy system was employed. Two days later the abdomen was closed without tension. The remainder of the patient's post-operative recovery was unremarkable.
