The risk factors for incisional hernia after laparoscopic colorectal surgery: a multicenter retrospective study at Yokohama Clinical Oncology Group.
Observational study in Surgical endoscopy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundIncisional hernia (IH) is a common complication after colorectal surgery. However, the risk factors for incisional hernia after laparoscopic colorectal surgery (LCRS) have not been fully elucidated. This retrospective study analyzed the incidence rate of IH and evaluated the risk factors for IH after LCRS.
methodsThis was a retrospective multi-institution study of 423 colorectal cancer patients conducted between September 2012 and December 2014 in Yokohama Clinical Oncology Group. The diagnosis of IH was based on computed tomography and physical examination findings. The patient-, tumor-, and surgery-related variables were examined by univariate and multivariate analyses.
resultsA total of 423 patients were analyzed. The median follow-up period was 48.4 months. IH was observed in 36 patients (8.5%). The 1-year incidence of IH was 5.2%, and the 4-year incidence was 8.5%. A multivariate analysis showed that preoperative umbilical hernia (odds ratio [OR] 5.71; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.02-16.10; p = 0.001) and a visceral fat area (VFA) ≥ 100 cm
conclusionsThe risk factors of IH after LCRS were preoperative umbilical hernia and VFA ≥ 100 cm CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: The trial was registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry, number 000038707.
