Rectocutaneous fistula: a rare complication of the posterior intravaginal sling.
Article in International urogynecology journal and pelvic floor dysfunction, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The posterior intravaginal sling (IVS) is a device used to correct apical vaginal prolapse; there are limited data on associated complications. We present a case report of a rectocutaneous fistula forming after placement of a posterior IVS in a 59-year-old woman 2 months postoperatively. The sling was resected during sigmoidoscopy with scissors, and the colon laceration was closed. The buttock wound underwent delayed healing 2 weeks later. More data regarding complications associated with use of this device are needed before widespread use.
