Rare Hernias as Surgical Emergencies: A Case Series of Five Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Hernia is one of the most common clinically diagnosed cases seen in day-to-day practice. But some of them might pose a challenge in diagnosing the condition and, thus, their further management. Some types of hernias are rare and mimic the common presentation of the acute abdomen, thus requiring extra caution to keep hernias as a differential diagnosis in the acute abdomen. In this series, we report five cases of rare hernias presented to a tertiary care center in northern India over the course of one year. Two cases of paraduodenal hernias (PHs), a right and left, respectively, a male femoral hernia, an Amayand hernia, and an obturator hernia presented as acute abdomen in the emergency department, with challenges in their diagnosis, intraoperative findings, and their outcomes. Computed tomography is a useful diagnostic tool for arriving at the diagnosis pre-operatively in these situations.
