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

The anterior liver hernia is a very rare entity that mainly occurs within an incisional hernia. Primary anterior liver hernia, in the absence of a previous abdominal incision, is extremely rare. The diagnosis is suspected in patients with epigastric bulging. The confirmation requires imaging studies such as computed tomography scan (CT scan). We report the case of an incarcerated primary ventral liver hernia, in an 83-year-old man who presented with a sudden epigastric swelling. A contrast-enhanced CT scan confirmed the diagnosis of incarcerated epigastric hernia with liver and epiploic content. Risk factors were thought to be the increased intra-abdominal pressure related to benign prostate hyperplasia, as well as the old age of the patient. The surgical conservative management was successful.
