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

The indications for surgical treatment of hiatus hernias differentiate between type I and types II, III and IV hernias. The indications for a type I hernia should include a proven reflux disease but the indications for surgical treatment of types II, III and IV hernias are mandatory due to the symptoms with problems in the passage of food and due to the sometimes very severe possible complications. The primary aims of surgery are the repositioning of the herniated contents and a hiatoplasty, which includes a surgical narrowing of the esophageal hiatus by suture implantation. In addition, depending on the clinical situation other procedures, such as hernia sac removal, mesh implantation, gastropexy and fundoplication can be considered. There are various approaches to the repair, all of which have individual advantages and disadvantages. An adaptation to the specific needs situation of the patient and the expertise of the surgeon is therefore essential.
