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

Hernias are a common cause of small bowel obstruction. Many different classifications of hernias exist, all differing by location throughout the abdomen and hernia contents. We present a case report that describes a unique hernia-a peritoneal invagination hernia-which may lead to small bowel obstruction. The peritoneal invagination hernia is a defect in the peritoneum, in this case located on the right anterolateral abdominal wall, allowing small bowel to enter and become incarcerated. In our patient, the peritoneal defect was circular with smooth, rolled borders. The defect contained intact peritoneum overlying intact transversalis fascia. The patient had no prior abdominal surgeries. This hernia differs by location and etiology from preperitoneal interparietal hernias, which are found in the inguinal and femoral regions. This case describes a newly characterized abdominal hernia which is hypothesized to be due to a prior intra-abdominal inflammatory process.
