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

backgroundIncisional ventral hernia repair is a complex problem. Rives-Stoppa technique is the most common procedure for patients with large incisional hernias. However, in cases of incisional hernias with a large defect width and/or the rectus to defect ratio (RDR) of less than 2, component separation is often required. At the same time, posterior component separation (PCS) is a technically challenging procedure. Currently, the evaluation of postoperative outcomes after PCS is primarily based on analysis of wound morbidity and recurrence rate. The aim of our study was to evaluate long-term surgical outcome after different types of PCS for midline incisional ventral hernias based on postoperative CT data and patient-reported outcome. MATERIALS AND

methodsOur study is a retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database from 2017 to 2022 for patients with midline incisional hernia after different types of bilateral PCS (eTAR/TAR or Carbonell). All patients were evaluated by physical examination, a low dose computed tomography (CT) of the abdominal wall and quality of life assessment by EuraHS score.

resultsTotal of 180 patients with midline incisional ventral hernia underwent Rives-Stoppa repair in combination with bilateral PCS. Long-term results were obtained in 120 patients (66.7%). According to CT data, most patients (79%) did not have any pathological changes of abdominal wall. Unfavorable outcomes were diagnosed in 24 patients (20.0%). We interpreted unfavorable outcomes as the presence of recurrence or interparietal hernia (IPH), or a combination of both. A total of 8 recurrences were identified: 3 - in open TAR group, 3 - in Carbonell group and 2 recurrences in eTAR group. A total of 20 (16.7%) postoperative IPH were revealed based on CT scans. The overall values of EuraHS-QoL score were significantly higher in the group with CT-complications (8 (4-15) vs. 4 (0-10), p = 0.024).

conclusionDetection of interparietal hernia for comprehensive long-term outcomes after posterior component separation is equally important as recurrence, because both can influence on quality of life.
