Simultaneous Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair and Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Placement in Patients With Chronic Renal Failure: A Single-Center Retrospective Analysis.

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
Background In patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD), there is a high incidence of ventral hernia during the first five years of follow-up. Early diagnosis of the occurrence of ventral hernias in PD patients is very important to ensure their surgical treatment as quickly as possible. Methods A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data was conducted between January 2022 and May 2023. All patients who have undergone peritoneal catheter implantation by laparoscopy and concomitant ventral hernia repair according to the laparoscopic intra-peritoneal onlay mesh technique were enrolled. Primary outcomes include operative time, blood loss volume, conversion to open surgery, hospital stay, hematoma, chronic pain, complication rate according to Clavien Dindo score, hernia recurrences, and peritoneal catheter displacement or malfunction. Results The mean operative time was 40 minutes (range: 30-60 minutes). Intraoperative blood loss was less than 30 ml. No conversion to laparotomy was needed. Considering a mean follow-up of six months, no Clavien Dindo grade > 2 was recorded. One hematoma appeared on postoperative day 4. No chronic pain, defined as pain lasting >3 months, was recorded. No hernia recurrence was registered, but one was an asymptomatic bulging Early initiation of PD was achieved, with no reported malfunctions of the peritoneal catheter or infusion system to date. Conclusion For patients on PD with ventral hernia, laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM)
