Transabdominal Preperitoneal Repair for a Recurrent Inguinal Hernia After Kugel Hernioplasty Using the Pseudosac of Direct Inguinal Hernia: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Here, we report a case of laparoscopic trans-inguinal hernia repair (transabdominal preperitoneal repair or TAPP) for a recurrent inguinal hernia following direct Kugel surgery. A 71-year-old man underwent direct Kugel hernioplasty for a right inguinal hernia at another hospital 4 years prior to presentation. The patient subsequently underwent laparoscopic surgery using the TAPP technique, during which the abdominal cavity was visualized with a laparoscope, revealing a tubular mesh protruding towards the abdominal cavity with a direct and indirect hernia ring. Three months post-surgery, no recurrence was observed.
