An emerging, less explored Subcutaneous onlay laparoscopic approach for ventral hernias with concomitant diastasis recti.
Observational study in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Ventral Hernia (VH) is a common issue in patients with Diastasis Recti (DR). VH with concomitant DR presents a challenging scenario for surgical repair due to complexity of abdominal wall defects. Traditional open surgical procedure is associated with prolonged discomfort and poor cosmesis and resultant patients' unacceptability. Minimal access surgery such as Sub Cutaneous Onlay Laparoscopic Approach (SCOLA), offers innovative solution in addressing both hernia defects and DR comprehensively and circumvent drawbacks of open surgery. In this prospective observational study, 33 patients with VH and DR underwent SCOLA in a tertiary care hospital in Jamnagar, India over a period of 15 months. Reconstruction of abdominal wall was done by suturing hernia defect, plication of DR and onlay polypropylene mesh augmentation by using this technique. No recurrence was detected at follow up from 4 to 18 month. Overall patient satisfaction rate was 90.9%. We conclude that, the SCOLA is a promising advancement in the treatment of patients of VH with DR with many benefits.
