How to Article: Prehabilitation and postoperative treatment at Shouldice Hospital.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Shouldice Hospital has grown beyond its beginnings in the 1940s to become a leading centre of excellence for mesh-free hernia repair. Little is known to the international surgical community about the preoperative and postoperative care at Shouldice Hospital, and colleagues working at Shouldice Hospital have been repeatedly asked to provide more details at international and national congresses. Therefore, this article aims to summarize preoperative and postoperative care at Shouldice Hospital based on previously published literature. The authors believe that the long-standing tradition of prehabilitation and postoperative treatment may play a role in facilitating patient satisfaction and superior postoperative results after hernia surgery.
