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

Purpose: Despite the high frequency of hernioplasties worldwide, their complications and recurrences are still a challenge to be overcome. The search for prostheses that aim to promote the correction of hernia defects has been a challenge. For this purpose, the materials used in hernioplasties must be biocompatible, promote the formation of little or no peritoneal adhesion, possess compatible texture and flexibility, providing the necessary resistance to protect the viscera and allow the movement of the abdomen. Methods: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of bubble plastic (low density polyethylene, LDPE) as a material for the correction of hernia in the abdominal wall. For this, twenty male rats ( Results: The results showed that the bubble plastic induced inflammatory reaction in the initial period (7 day), followed by a reduction (30 day) to increase considerably at 90 days after the operation. Conclusion: So, bubble plastic can be used for temporary implants (up to 30 days).
