Grynfeltt lumbar hernia mimicking recurrent renal colic in a young woman: A case report.
Article in Radiology 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 a rare condition. These anomalies account for less than 2% of all abdominal hernias. They develop in areas of natural muscular weakness in the lumbar region, most often in the upper lumbar triangle (Grynfeltt-Les Shaft triangle). Lumbar hernias are often overlooked because their symptoms are nonspecific and can mimic more common conditions, such as renal colic or soft tissue masses, particularly lipomas. We report the case of a 32-year-old woman with recurrent episodes of left lumbar pain, initially suspected of being renal colic, but ultimately diagnosed with a Grynfeltt lumbar hernia after imaging. This case highlights the importance of considering lumbar hernia in the differential diagnosis of persistent or atypical flank pain and emphasizes the central role of CT imaging in establishing an early diagnosis and guiding management.
