Bone-anchored suburethral sling: surgical technique 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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 gold standard treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the autologous rectus fascia pubovaginal sling. Although successful, it is associated with increased morbidity related to the graft harvest. Because of this, less invasive techniques were developed, including the retropubic and trans-obturator midurethral sling and the bone-anchored sling (BAS). Early reported outcome failures and concern for bone-anchored-related complications caused BAS to fall out of favor. However, technique modifications and use of a more durable graft or mesh have proven that the transvaginal placement of BAS is actually safe and effective in treating patients with SUI. Further, recent evidence suggests that the bone-anchored sling may be a reasonable option for treatment of patients with moderate to severe and/or recurrent SUI.
