Experience with TVT-SECUR sling for stress urinary incontinence: a 141-case analysis.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
introduction and hypothesisThe objective of this study was to investigate complications, urinary incontinence symptoms, and overall satisfaction in patients undergoing the tension-free vaginal tape-SECUR (TVT-S) for stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
methodsWe reviewed consecutive patients treated with TVT-S between April, 2006 and August, 2007, in a urogynecology practice. Outcomes assessed included complications, voiding function, change in SUI symptoms on the Medical Epidemiological and Social Aspects of Aging (MESA) questionnaire, and overall satisfaction.
resultsOne hundred forty-one women (age, 54.1 +/- 12 years; BMI, 31.2 +/- 6.6 kg/m(2)) were treated for SUI with the TVT-S; 34 required concomitant procedures. There were no intra-operative complications. Immediate post-operative voiding function returned in all but one patient; none required sling release. Most patients (90%) reported no pain on a verbal pain scale. On follow-up, 117 patients denied SUI symptoms, 16 reported mild symptoms, and eight required additional treatment. The average MESA "stress" subscore decreased by 79% (13.0 +/- 7.8 points, p < 0.0001). Eighty-five percent felt "satisfied" with the procedure.
conclusionTVT-S is a safe and effective treatment for SUI.
