Meta-anaEysis: Shouldice technique is superior to the Bassini or McVay methods of hernia repair

چکیده
Study selection Selected studies were controlled trials (published studies or abstracts) that compared the Shouldice technique with 1 or more other hernia repair methods. Data extraction Data were extracted on patient characteristics, comparability of study groups, hernia type, number of patients, method of randomisation, operative technique, follow-up methods, and outcomes. The information was collected independently by 3 investigators, differences were discussed, and full agreement was reached. Each study was assigned a score (up to 9 points) based on quality criteria.
