Incisional hernia after minimally invasive gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients.
Article in Journal of minimally invasive surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Although there are several studies on the incidence and risk factors for incisional hernia (IH) after open surgery, data about IH after minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for gastric cancer is rare. This study aimed to identify the incidence and risk factors for IH after MIS in gastric cancer patients. Methods: We analyzed the clinicopathologic data of patients who had laparoscopic or robotic gastric cancer surgeries between January 2006 and July 2019 at National Cancer Center, South Korea. Risk factors for development of IH were investigated with univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: A total of 2,769 patients underwent laparoscopic-assisted or robot-assisted gastrectomy with extracorporeal gastric resection and reconstruction, while 1,469 underwent totally laparoscopic or totally robotic gastrectomy (TLRG) with intracorporeal gastric resection and reconstruction. IH repair was performed in 23 patients (0.5%) after gastric cancer surgery. In the multivariate analysis, female sex (odds ratio [OR], 5.23; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.03-13.43; Conclusion: IH after MIS for gastric cancer is not common. Female sex, high BMI, large tumor size, and intracorporeal procedure were significant risk factors for it in this study. Therefore, in patients with risk factors, surgeons should cautiously close the abdominal wall access wound after MIS for gastric cancer, to prevent IH.
