Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair Postoperative Complications in End Stage Renal Disease Patients.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: The prevalence of patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring general surgical procedures is increasing. Our aim was to explore the effect of ESRD on patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. Methods: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (2010-2015) database was used to identify patients who underwent elective laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. Multivariable analysis was performed adjusting for risk variables including age, gender, race, comorbidity status, body mass index ≥ 35, and presence of ESRD. Results: A total of 8,789 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ventral hernia repair were identified. Sixty-four patients (0.73%) had ESRD. ESRD was identified as an independent risk factor for postoperative pneumonia (odds ration [OR] 6.91, p = 0.00363), sepsis (OR 18.58, p = 0.000286), and length of stay (IRR 1.63, 95% confidence interval 1.19 - 2.27, p = 0.0036). Conclusions: ESRD patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ventral hernia repair had an increased risk of postoperative pneumonia, sepsis, and length of stay. Clinicians should be cognizant of these risks when performing elective operations on ESRD patients.
