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
purposeInguinal hernia is a common complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Although tension-free mesh repair is a leading option for inguinal hernia repair, concerns over serious mesh-related complications may indicate a role for non-mesh inguinal hernia repair. In addition, there is no consensus on the perioperative dialysis regimen. Early resumption of PD may avoid the additional risks associated with hemodialysis. We report on the outcomes of non-mesh inguinal hernia repair in patients on continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) and provide a perioperative dialysis protocol that aims to guide early resumption of PD.
methodsBetween May 2019 and September 2023, thirty CAPD patients with 43 inguinal hernias who underwent non-mesh inguinal hernia repair were retrospectively analyzed. Data on the patient characteristics, perioperative dialysis regimen, perioperative features, complications, and hernia recurrence were collected and assessed.
resultsThirty patients with a total of 43 inguinal hernia repairs were included in this study. The median age was 53 years. 23 patients were male and 7 were female. Non-mesh inguinal repair was performed for all patients. PD was resumed at a median of 2 days after the surgery. Five patients received interim hemodialysis. There were no postoperative surgical or uremic complications and no recurrence after a median follow-up of 31.5 months.
conclusionOur study demonstrates the effectiveness and safety of non-mesh repair with early resumption of PD in patients on CAPD. Interim HD is unnecessary in selected patients. Choosing the optimal perioperative dialysis regimen is essential to managing inguinal hernias in CAPD patients.
