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
backgroundInguinal hernia repair (IHR) is a common surgical procedure worldwide. Although IHR can be performed by the minimally invasive method, which accelerates recovery, postoperative urinary retention (POUR) remains a common complication that significantly impacts patients. Thus, it is essential to identify the risk factors associated with POUR to diminish its negative impact.
methodsWe conducted a single-center retrospective review of elective IHR from 2018 to 2021. POUR was defined as the postoperative use of straight catheter or placement of an indwelling catheter to relieve the symptoms. Adjusted multivariate regression analysis was performed to address the associations of clinicodemographic, surgical, and intraoperative factors with POUR.
resultsA total of 946 subjects were included in the analysis after excluding cases of emergent surgery, recurrent hernia, or concomitant operations. The median age was 68.4 years, and 92.0% of the patients were male. Twenty-three (2.4%) patients developed POUR. In univariate analysis, POUR in comparison with non-POUR was significantly associated with increased age (72.2 versus 68.3 years, P = 0.012), a greater volume of intraoperative fluid administered (500 versus 400 ml, P = 0.040), and the diagnosis with benign prostate hypertrophy (34.8% versus 16.9%, P = 0.025). In the multivariate model, both increased age (odds ratio [OR] 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08; P = 0.049) and a greater volume of intraoperative fluid administered (OR 1.12 per 100-mL increase, 95% CI 1.01-1.27; P = 0.047) were significantly associated with the occurrence of POUR.
conclusionsWe found that increased age and a greater volume of intraoperative fluid administered were significantly associated with the occurrence of POUR. Limiting the administration of intraoperative fluid may prevent POUR. From the perspective of practical implications, specific guidelines or clinical pathways should be implemented for fluid management and patient assessment.
