Concomitant incarcerated right direct inguinal hernia and right femoral hernia in a male patient: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2025. 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
Concomitant indirect inguinal and femoral hernias on the same side are rare and often undetected preoperatively, especially when complicated by incarceration. We report this case to highlight its rarity and importance in the clinical decision process. An 83-year-old male with asthma presented with right inguinal pain and vomiting. The workup revealed a right direct inguinal hernia with small bowel obstruction. During surgery, a right direct inguinal hernia with a non-inflamed appendix (Amyand's hernia) and a right femoral hernia with a small bowel segment (Richter's hernia) were found. Both hernias were repaired with mesh. Concomitant right indirect inguinal and femoral hernias are challenging to diagnose preoperatively, especially in males. Early surgical intervention, aided by high suspicion and anatomical knowledge, prevents complications. This case demonstrates successful treatment with open mesh repair of both hernias.
