Indirect Inguinal Hernia and Hiatal Hernia in an Elderly Female Cadaver: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This case report highlights the rare co-occurrence of an indirect inguinal hernia and a hiatal hernia identified in a 92-year-old female formalin-fixed whole-body donor. While indirect inguinal hernias are relatively uncommon in women, the simultaneous presence of a hiatal hernia adds to the uniqueness of this case. This discovery offers an opportunity to explore the anatomical, clinical, and embryological factors contributing to hernia formation, as well as the incidence rates and sex-related disparities in their occurrence. The findings are contextualized within the donor's advanced age and suspected chronic respiratory disease, which likely contributed to increased intra-abdominal pressure and weakened connective tissue integrity. The authors obtained appropriate permissions and approvals for the use of data and images, adhering to institutional ethical guidelines and ensuring compliance with donor consent protocols.
