Use of the Desarda Technique in Emergency Settings: a Comprehensive Review.
Article in Maedica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
One of the most frequent surgeries performed across the world is an inguinal hernia repair, with at least twenty million people undergoing this procedure each year. The prevalence of groin hernia, defined as projections of adipose tissue or viscera through the femoral or inguinal canal, is 3-6% for women and 27-43% for men. Obstruction of the small bowel is one of the most frequent reasons for a strangulated hernia. The risk of strangulation per annum for a groin hernia is approximately 1-3%. The surgical method used to treat an emergency inguinal hernia surgery remains controversial. The elevated risk of complications and infections using prosthetic as opposed to pure tissue repair accounts for an increased likelihood of contamination of the surgical site and necrosis. To ascertain the utility of the Desarda technique in emergency hernia surgery, a systematic review in conjunction with a meta-analysis was performed, with a particular focus on duration of hospital stay, estimated operating time, relapse rate, and postoperative complications.
