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
Hiatal hernia is a complex pathology, associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease, and for which management involves complex surgical treatment. Knowing the role of gastropexy in reducing postoperative recurrences, the current study aimed to highlight the intraoperative advantages and results of this surgical technique. Our study includes 29 patients aged between 34 and 84 years. Regarding the mechanism of occurrence, two thirds of the patients presented with mixed hiatal hernias (65.52%), 31.03% with sliding hiatal hernias, and 3.45% with paraesophageal hiatal hernias. The hernia size played a decisive role in the choice of surgical procedure, whereby for large hernias (with a diameter of over 7 cm), the Nissen procedure associated with gastropexy was preferred. For hernias with a diameter of less than 7 cm, the Nissen procedure associated with hernia orifice repair was performed. For hernias between 5 and 6 cm, gastropexy was also performed. Statistical analysis revealed a close correlation between the surgical procedure and the hernia size, with
