Comparison of Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh Repair (IPOM plus) vs Open Rives-Stoppa (RS) Repair for Ventral and Incisional Hernia.
Article in Acta medica Lituanica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aim: To compare the effects of laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh plus repair versus open Rives-Stoppa repair for abdominal wall hernias. Materials and methods: A total of 99 patients with midline primary, umbilical or incisional hernias who underwent surgery in "Medikom" clinic and Kyiv city hospital #5 in the period from 2016 to 2022 were involved in the study. The group I included 50 patients who underwent intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) plus, and the group II 49 patients who underwent open Rives-Stoppa (RS) repair. Result: Both groups were comparable in mean age, gender, body mass index, patient distribution based on hernia type, defect size, ASA score distribution (p > 0.05).The operating time in minutes was 75.36 ± 4.99 in group I and 97.85 ± 6.5 in group II (p < 0.05). The blood loss in IPOM plus approach group is on average in 2 times less than in open RS technique (p < 0.05). The pain score 12 hours after surgery was 5.5 ± 0.64 in group I comparing to 7.26 ± 0.78 in group II (p < 0.05). The pain score 24 hours after surgery was 4.46 ± 0.7 in group I comparing to 4.95 ± 0.61 in group II (p < 0.05). The pain score 8 days after surgery in group I was on average in 1.46 times less than in group II (p < 0.05).No significant difference was found in incidence of early complications between two groups (p > 0.05).47 (94%) patients of group I and 46 (93.87%) patients of group II were evaluated over 22 months follow-up period. No one complication was noted. Conclusions: IPOM plus approach for the ventral and incisional hernias repair is a viable and relatively more safe operation by comparing with open RS repair. IPOM plus approach takes significantly in 1.3 less time as compared open RS technique.
