Incarcerated inguinal hernia containing urinary bladder and bladder calculi.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Inguinoscrotal herniation of the bladder is an uncommon condition. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for involvement of the bladder within a hernia when the lower urinary tract urinary symptoms are concurrently present in patients presenting with a painful groin lump. We report the case of a patient who presented with an inguinoscrotal hernia involving the urinary bladder, which was irreducible due to the fact that the herniated portion of the bladder contains multiple containing calculi. The patient underwent successful operative repair of the hernia and had an uncomplicated post-operative course. Key takeaway messages for clinicians are that the presence of lower urinary tract symptoms in a patient concurrently presenting with a groin lump should raise suspicion of bladder involvement within the hernia and that pre-operative imaging is valuable to identify the contents of the hernia to allow safe operative planning and to reduce the risk of bladder injury during surgery.
