An unusual hernia postkidney transplantation led to intermittent ureteric obstruction.

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
A 53-year-old man underwent a living donor kidney transplantation in the right iliac fossa 25 years prior to presentation. He had been noting an inguinal bugle that became more prominent as the day progressed, and it regressed at night. Upon further investigations, an ultrasound of the allograft revealed moderate-to-severe hydronephrosis. A computed tomography scan revealed herniation of the bladder and part of the transplanted ureter within the supravesical/direct inguinal space. Lichtenstein-like fashion of repair was performed, and the patient continues to enjoy satisfactory graft function with no recurrence. The case illustrates a rare hernia as a late complication of the kidney transplant incision leading to ureteric obstruction and a successful attempt at operative repair.
