Primary Petit's Triangle Hernia With Bowel Strangulation: Management in a Resource-Limited Setting.
Article in Clinical 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
Lumbar hernias are rare surgical entities that may present asymptomatically or with complications such as obstruction and strangulation. We report a case of a 45-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department with a painful, irreducible swelling in the right lumbar region accompanied by vomiting, abdominal pain, and obstipation. Although she had been aware of a painless lump in the same area for months, the acute presentation suggested strangulation. Due to limited access to advanced imaging, an emergency exploration was performed via a direct lumbar incision, revealing a non-viable segment of small bowel. The affected bowel was resected with primary anastomosis, and the small fascial defect was closed primarily. The patient recovered without complications and showed no recurrence at the 1-year follow-up. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of strangulated lumbar hernias and demonstrates that timely open surgical repair based on clinical assessment alone can be life-saving, particularly in resource-constrained settings.
