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

Arcuate line hernias are a rare type of hernia with limited publications regarding their successful repair. The arcuate line is the inferior limit of the posterior leaf of the rectus sheath. An arcuate line hernia is a type of intraparietal hernia, meaning it is not a truly complete fascial defect of the abdominal and, therefore, may present with atypical symptoms. Although published data on arcuate line hernia repairs are limited to a handful of case reports and one literature review, reports regarding robotic repair are exceptionally rare. This case report is the second documented robotic approach to arcuate line hernias known to these authors.
