A novel mini-open sublay hernioplasty combined with D10 mesh for primary lumbar hernia: a retrospective analysis of 48 cases.

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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to explore the safety and efficacy of a novel mini-open sublay hernioplasty with D10 mesh for primary lumbar hernias.
methodsThis retrospective study included 48 patients with primary lumbar hernias who underwent mini-open sublay hernioplasty with D10 mesh from January 2015 to January 2022 in our hospital. Observation indicators were intraoperative measured diameter of hernia ring defect, operation time, length of hospital stay, postoperative follow-up, complications, postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) score, chronic pain.
resultsThe operations were completed successfully in all 48 cases. The mean diameter of hernia ring was 2.66 ± 0.57 cm (range 1.5-3.0 cm), the mean operation time was 41.54 ± 13.21 min (range 25-70 min), the intraoperative blood loss was 9.89 ± 6.16 ml (range 5-30 ml), and the mean hospital stay was 3.14 ± 1.53 days (range 1-6 days). The mean preoperative and postoperative VAS scores at 24 h were 0.29 ± 0.53 (range 0-2) and 2.52 ± 0.61 (range 2-6), respectively. All cases were followed-up for 53.4 ± 24.3 months (range 12-96 months) without seroma, hematoma, incision or mesh infection, recurrence, and obvious chronic pain.
conclusionA novel mini-open sublay hernioplasty with D10 mesh for primary lumbar hernias is safe and feasible. Its efficacy in the short term is favorable.
