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
purposeDevelop a 3D model for the simulation of laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP).
methodsThis is an experimental study, 18 participants were selected, divided into three groups, experimental (GE) surgeons in training, control (GC) experienced surgeons and Shaw (GS) nonexperienced surgeons. The simulation in the 3D model was carried out in 6 sessions fulfilling the 5 stages. Opening the peritoneum with the creation of the preperitoneal space; identification of important structures; hernia identification and reduction; placement and fixation of the mesh in Cooper's ligament and closure of the peritoneum.
resultsIn the 1st stage, the GE obtained an average of 1.25 ± 0.42 in the 1st session and 3.25 ± 0.62 in the 6th session (p = 0.05) and in the 5th stage 0.91 ± 0.29 in the first session. 1st session and 1.91 ± 0.29 in the 6th session (p = 0.001), with no significant difference between groups. The learning and skill curve in the SG represented 1.08 ± 0.29 1st and 3.50 ± 0.90 6th session (p = 0.001).
conclusionsThe creation of a systematization of training in simulation applied to the three-dimensional model enabled gain in laparoscopic skills and underpinned its theoretical and practical foundations.
