Robotic assisted subcutaneous onlay endoscopic approach (SCOLA) repair of superior recurrence after open transversus abdominis muscle release: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
There is a paucity of data on the use of the subcutaneous onlay laparoscopic approach (SCOLA) for management of recurrent incisional hernia after transversus abdominis release (TAR), particularly in patients with higher BMI and a hostile abdomen. Our patient is a 60-year-old woman with obesity and a complex surgical history resulting in a large M2-4 W3 R1 incisional hernia underwent open TAR and subsequently developed a symptomatic, bowel-containing superior recurrence. A robotic SCOLA approach was selected to avoid relaparotomy in a hostile abdomen. The defect was closed with a permanent barbed suture, and a 20-cm-wide lightweight polypropylene mesh was placed in an onlay position. This case report is the first to describe use of SCOLA to treat such a recurrence in a comorbid patient with a high BMI and a hostile abdomen. SCOLA is a viable option and should be considered in this unique patient population.
