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

The assessment of patients with pelvic floor dysfunction necessitates a combination of clinical skills and adjunct investigations, including detailed imaging. This article reviews a variety of static and dynamic imaging modalities available in the field of urogynaecology, with an emphasis on their clinical implication in identifying the structural and functional causes of pelvic floor disorders. A number of different modalities have been used including X-rays, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. Their place and value are discussed with comments on the validity of the various techniques.
