Fecal incontinence.
Article in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2007. 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
Fecal incontinence is a devastating problem for those afflicted. It can lead to embarrassment and social isolation. Treating the problem begins with a thorough history and physical examination. Further testing (such as anal physiology testing or anal endosonography) depends on the examination and treatment plan. Conservative medical therapies (such as dietary manipulation, medication to slow the stool, and biofeedback) are usually tried first. Surgery includes sphincter repair, SECCA, artificial bowel sphincter, and stoma. New therapies continue to evolve with the intention of further improving quality of life for these afflicted patients.
