1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introduction and hypothesisThe aim of this study was to assess the outcome of early mobilisation of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) in cases of post-operative voiding dysfunction.

methodsThirty-three consecutive cases of early mobilisation of TVT to treat post-operative voiding dysfunction were analysed retrospectively. In each case, the TVT was mobilised and loosened without dividing it, under general anaesthesia, within 2 weeks after the original procedure.

resultsVoiding function subsequently returned to normal in 29 out of 33 women with no recurrence of original stress incontinence. The four remaining women had the tape divided.

conclusionsThe study shows that early mobilisation of the TVT allows rapid resolution of post-operative voiding dysfunction without compromising the outcome of the original continence procedure.
