Abdominal Pseudohernia Caused by Zoster Sine Herpete.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Abdominal pseudohernia is a rare clinical condition characterized by an abnormal bulging of the abdominal wall. We present a 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with abdominal pseudohernia caused by zoster sine herpete (ZSH). The patient initially presented with a right abdominal wall bulging at the Th10 dermatome area. The patient did not experience any pain or rash at the site, and the ultrasonography (US) did not reveal any tumor or hernia. Computed tomography (CT) was taken in another hospital, but it failed to provide a diagnosis. During the second visit, we performed standing ultrasonography and detected the thinning of the abdominal muscle. To diagnose abdominal pseudohernia, the key point is to detect the muscle thinning between the affected site and the healthy side.
