Giant Inguino-Scrotal Hernia With Loss of Domain: Surgical Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The surgical repair of giant inguinal hernias with loss of domain, defined as the relocation of the majority of the intestine into the hernia sac, poses a significant challenge. In the majority of cases, a combination of different surgical techniques with the placement of multiple meshes is necessary to achieve reduction of such complex hernias. The reduction of chronic giant hernias can increase the risk of abdominal compartment syndrome or cardiopulmonary complications. This case study presents a rare and complex case of a patient with a chronic giant inguinal hernia, in which almost the entire intestine was herniated, involving the scrotum and reaching mid thigh. The reduction of the hernia was achieved by a combined open transabdominal and inguinal approach, utilizing the abdominal component separation technique and multiple preperitoneal mesh placements. This multimodal approach resulted in optimal outcomes in terms of cosmesis, functionality, and abdominal wall integrity.
