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

purposeIncisional hernias (IH) after kidney transplantation (KTx) can cause significant morbidity in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). We aimed to report the outcomes of surgical repair of IH in KTR from our centre.

methodsWe retrospectively analysed all the IH repairs in KTR from May 2018 to May 2023. We documented pre-transplant baseline characteristics, peri- and post-KTx events and outcomes and post-IH repair complications. We also documented length of stay, survival, and hernia recurrence post-IH repair.

resultsWe performed 35 incisional hernia repairs in 34 KTR from May 2018 to May 2023 with an overall incidence of 1.63% symptomatic IH. Mean patient age was 56.7 ± 10.1 years and mean body mass index (BMI) 29.7 ± 6.49 kg/m

conclusionsThe recurrence rate in our cohort was 20%. Known risk factors for IH in KTR as well as post-KTx events were not correlated with hernia recurrence or other post-hernia repair complications.
