Reasons for and treatment of surgical complications with alloplastic slings.
Review in International urogynecology journal and pelvic floor dysfunction, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Suburethral slings with tension-free vaginal tapes have become a popular treatment for stress urinary incontinence. Case reports on singleton complications are numerous and of clinical interest. Four European centers for urogynecology report on 328 surgical reinterventions after tension-free slings. Poor surgical technique is the most frequent cause of problems (45%), followed by incorrect indication (38%). The most frequent symptom is functional or anatomical outlet obstruction; perforation or penetration and defect healing are rare, but, apparently more frequent than described in studies or follow-up series previously.
