Laparoscopic Diagnosis of an Incarcerated Ileal Conduit in an Inguinal Hernia: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Ileal conduit creation is a common urinary diversion after radical cystectomy, though complications such as obstruction can occur. We report a rare case of an 80-year-old male with recurrent obstructive pyelonephritis due to an incarcerated ileal conduit in an inguinal hernia. An 80-year-old male, 27 years post-total cystectomy, presented with recurrent fever due to obstructive pyelonephritis. For three years, he suffered from repeated urinary tract obstructions attributed to kinking of the ileal conduit, requiring multiple hospitalizations and catheter placements, despite regular follow-up at our institution and affiliated hospitals. Laparoscopic exploration, initially planned for conduit repair, unexpectedly revealed the ileal conduit incarcerated within an inguinal hernia, establishing the definitive diagnosis. Although rare, incarceration of the ileal conduit should be considered in the differential diagnosis of urinary tract obstruction in patients with an ileal conduit, particularly when the cause of obstruction is unclear.
