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

summaryBiologic mesh is preferred over synthetic mesh for complex and contaminated abdominal wall repairs; however, there are very little data on the risks and complications associated with its use. We report the case of a 67-year-old man with failed synthetic mesh repair for recurrent ventral hernia, who subsequently required an abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR), including the intraperitoneal sublay of noncrosslinked biologic mesh. His postoperative course was complicated with catastrophic sepsis and sustained hemodynamic instability, responding only to mesh explantation. The biologic mesh was subsequently noted to be histologically infected with invasive
