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

introductionLaparoscopic surgery is associated with several advantages. Surgical procedures in hemophilia or von Willebrand patients without replacement therapy (RT) to correct clotting factor deficiency may result in serious, life-threatening hemorrhagic episodes. Clotting factor concentrates improve hemostatic control but bleeding risk in major invasive procedures remains high.

aimEvaluation of totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (TEP-IHR) in patients with congenital hemorrhagic disorders (H) and comparison with results for non-hemophiliacs (NH) with regard to bleeding, postoperative pain, hernia recurrence, surgery time, demand for painkillers, hospital stay and recovery time. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe prospective controlled trial included 67 consecutive male patients scheduled for TEP-IHR between January 2010 and December 2018. Surgery was performed in groups H (n = 22) and NH (n = 45). Full study inclusion criteria were met by 65 patients (22 and 43 in H and NH groups respectively). Follow-up was carried out on the 1

resultsTEP-IHR was successful for all patients. No life-threatening bleeding occurred and no patient required red blood cell transfusions or reoperation. No hernia recurrence was reported. No statistically significant differences were observed between the groups with regard to surgery duration, postoperative hematoma frequency and demand for painkillers. In the H group, pain intensity was significantly higher during the first postoperative month and hospitalization and recovery were significantly longer.

conclusionsTEP-IHR in hemophiliacs with RT is feasible and as effective for preventing hernia recurrence as in NH-patients. In hemophiliacs risk of bleeding complications and demand for painkillers are comparable to non-hemophiliacs although pain is more intense.
