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

purposeTo evaluate the outcome and efficacy of transobturator adjustable (TOA) tape sling operations on women with intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) and/or detrusor underactivity (DU) combined with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective analysis comprised 60 TOA patients. 30 patients hadDU (Qmax < 15ml/s) and/or ISD (Valsalva leak point pressure;VLPP < 60cmH(2)0) on the preoperative UDS and the rest only had SUI. I-QoL, visual analog scale (VAS), Patient's Perception of Urgency Severity (PPUS), and Self-Assessment/Sandvik Questions were performed before and 1 year after surgery. The mesh tension was controlled at 1 day after surgery. The objective cure rate was defined as no leakage using the cough test with a full bladder.

resultsPATIENTS WERE DIVIDED INTO TWO GROUPS: Group A:SUI with ISD and/or DU, n=30; Group B:only SUI without ISD and DU, n=30. The two groups showed a difference in Qmax and VLPP preoperatively. Objective success rates were 18 (60.0%) completely cured, 10 (33.3%) improved in Group A, and 23 (76.7%) completely cured, 7 (23.3%) improved in Group B. Three cases needed tape-tension adjustment due to urinary leakage one-day after surgery (2 in Group A, 1 in Group B). There was no postoperative urinary retention.

conclusionsAfter TOA for SUI with ISD and/or DU, 3 cases were needed tension adjustment after surgery. TOA procedures seem to be effective and safe, more clinical studies with long-term follow up are required for a definite conclusion.
