Intraesophageal Migration of a Paraesophageal Hernia Mesh: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
Paraesophageal hernias (PEH) have a high recurrence rate, which can justify the use of a mesh during their repair. Mesh use in PEH repair is highly debated as it can lead to many complications like erosion and migration of the mesh, like in our case. Here, we present a case of a 23-year-old woman operated on multiple occasions for a recurring PEH and who presented an intraesophageal migration of the mesh. Partial upper gastrectomy and lower esophagectomy were performed to remove the mesh and the recurrent hernia was repaired using primary sutures of the hiatus. The surgery was without complications and there are no signs of recurrence up to a year later. Reoperation on a recurring PEH can be more difficult in case of mesh use in previous intervention and can lead to other complications like mesh erosion or migration, even so, some surgeons choose this option because it has a lower recurrence rate.
