Comprehensive Surgical Management of Massive Oesophageal Hiatal Hernia in Squirrel Monkeys (Saimiri sciureus).
Article in Veterinary medicine and science, 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
backgroundLiterature remains scant regarding the subset termed 'massive hiatal hernias'. This case report delineates the surgical management and subsequent outcomes of two squirrel monkeys diagnosed with massive hiatal hernias.
objectivesThis case report delineates the surgical management and subsequent outcomes of two squirrel monkeys diagnosed with massive hiatal hernias, offering insights into the feasibility and criticality of timely interventions, underscored by postoperative care and dietary management.
methodsThe radiographic diagnosis is suggestive of a massive hiatal hernia, and this clinical suspicion was definitively corroborated during the subsequent surgical intervention. Left gastric fixation was used to reposition the herniated organs and repair and reinforce the hiatus.
resultsOne subject died of unforeseeable complications 3 days after post-discharge. The other subject's hospitalization was extended to 40 days to ensure optimal recovery. Upon being discharged, the monkey's condition remained stable.
conclusionsThis case suggested achieving long-term postoperative survival of a massive oesophageal hiatal hernia. Surgical management hinges not merely on the surgery but on rigorous postoperative care coupled with stringent dietary regulation.
