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

purposeAbdominal wall reconstruction in the presence of midline hernia (MH) and lateral hernia (LH) is a challenging procedure. The purpose of this study was to introduce surgical method combining the retromuscular sublay technique and component separation technique with mesh augmentation for the simultaneous repair of midline and lateral hernias.

methodsBetween January 2006 and January 2025, 67 consecutive patients who underwent abdominal wall reconstruction for combined MH and LH or parastomal hernia (PH) were retrospectively analysed. The abdominal wall was reconstructed using a combination of the retromuscular sublay technique and the component separation technique, followed by mesh reinforcement.

resultsOf 67 patients, 53 underwent reconstruction surgery for simultaneous MH and LH, and 14 patients underwent surgery for MH and PH. LH was incisional (after previous pararectal, oblique, subcostal, or "J" incisions) in 58.5%, at the site of stoma closure in 37.7%, and as a consequence of blunt trauma in 3.8%. The median total defect width was 15 cm (range, 11-18) for the entire cohort. The median operative time was 150 min. Overall morbidity was 17.9%. After a median follow-up period of 24 months (range, 1-58), recurrence developed in 2 (3%) patients and abdominal wall bulging in 1 (1.5%).

conclusionThe combination of the retromuscular sublay technique, the component separation technique and mesh reinforcement is a safe and effective method for the simultaneous repair of MH and LH or PH.
