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

objectiveTo develop a multidimensional method that allows to identify different treatment concepts, techniques, protagonists, and their connections in surgical pathology of the abdominal wall throughout its historical development, serving as a basis or guide for the future.

methodFirst, an extensive and rigorous review of the literature was conducted to search for and group the different treatments described in the most common abdominal wall pathologies, including both groin and ventral hernias. Then, all treatment approaches were chronologically ordered and grouped according to their author, surgical approach, and method of approach. With all the information gathered, a table was created following a rational and multidimensional criterion that allows for the encoding of the set.

results21 treatment modalities were identified and distributed into 8 groups. Additionally, 3 types of authors were detected: the creator, the innovator, and the popularizer. The assignment of values to different dimensions allowed us to obtain an alphanumeric code representative of the set.

conclusionMultidimensional historical analysis allows analytical objectivity and set encoding. Its practical scope should be investigated.
