Perioperative Outcomes After Robotic Inguinal Hernia Repair in Patients With BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
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
introductionAlthough robotic inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) is increasingly utilized, limited data exist regarding its safety in patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m
methodsA retrospective review was conducted for adult patients undergoing RIHR between February 2019 and July 2022 at a single quaternary care center. Patients were stratified into BMI < 35 kg/m
resultsA total of 106 patients underwent RIHR, including 90 patients (84.9%) with BMI < 35 kg/m
conclusionOur study shows that RIHR has comparable perioperative outcomes and 24-month recurrence rates in patients with BMI < 35 kg/m
