LeFort colpocleisis and stress incontinence: weighing the risk of voiding dysfunction with sling placement.
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 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 hypothesisThis study aims to evaluate clinical outcomes of concomitant suburethral sling with LeFort colpocleisis including its effect on postoperative voiding.
methodsWe performed a retrospective review of all LeFort colpocleisis procedures from our institution. We reviewed demographics, symptoms of stress urinary incontinence, incontinent events/day, pads usage/day, urodynamic parameters, and presence of voiding dysfunction.
resultsTwo hundred ten patients underwent colpocleisis during the study period. Mean age was 82.2 ± 4.9 and median follow-up was 22 weeks (2-169). Preoperatively, 73 (35%) complained of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) symptoms, and an additional 105 (50%) were diagnosed with occult SUI. One hundred sixty-one (77%) patients underwent concurrent suburethral sling. Overall, sling placement resulted in a 92.5% subjective stress continent rate. Fifty-six patients presented with voiding dysfunction (VD). Postoperatively, VD resolved in 91%. De novo VD occurred in two patients (1.9%) and one (0.6%) required sling revision.
conclusionsSling placement at time of colpocleisis is associated with high continence rates with minimal risk of postoperative voiding dysfunction.
