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

The development of minimally invasive surgical techniques for ventral hernias has significantly progressed, evolving from IPOM and IPOM + to advancements like eTEP/eTEP-TAR. These newer techniques have demonstrated their effectiveness by delivering excellent postoperative outcomes, despite being introduced less than a decade ago. Recreating traditional procedures, which are considered the "gold standard" in ventral hernia surgery, through minimally invasive methods-such as the Rives-Stoppa repair-could represent the next frontier in abdominal wall surgery. This publication focuses on replicating ventral incisional hernia repair using an extraperitoneal approach, as outlined by Todd Heniford, and taking inspiration from the PeTEP technique for primary ventral hernias, whether associated with diastasis recti or not, as described by Hector Valenzuela.
