Case reports: periurethral bulking agents and presumed urethral diverticula.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Urethral bulking agents are a commonly employed modality utilized for treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. These primarily collagen-based agents are placed in the proximal urethra to facilitate mucosal coaptation during increases of intra-abdominal stress. Several known complications of these agents exist, including urethral prolapse, retention, and urinary infection. Herein, we report two cases diagnosed as urethral diverticuli which were ultimately determined anatomic aberration secondary to prior bulking agent therapy. Recognition of this potential sequela of bulking agent placement is important for the female pelvic surgeon to recognize to avoid the morbidity of potential invasive interventions.
