Retropubic synthetic midurethral slings: techniques and outcomes.
Review in Current urology reports, 2009. 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
Retropubic midurethral slings have evolved to become one of the standard therapies for treatment of stress urinary incontinence. The current slings can be placed through a small vaginal incision, with minimal dissection, in the ambulatory setting. With improvements in technique, complications are minimal. Although the tension-free vaginal tape has the most prospective data in the literature, the suprapubic arc sling appears to have equal cure and complication rates in shorter-term studies. Other retropubic slings have a paucity of data, and long-term equivalency studies have yet to be reported. This article describes the techniques of the most commonly performed retropubic synthetic slings and reports on efficacy and outcomes based on recently published studies.
