Long-term outcomes of the Ajust Adjustable Single-Incision Sling for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence.
Trial report in International urogynecology journal, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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 aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and overall safety of the Ajust Adjustable Single-Incision Sling in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
methodsThis was a prospective, multicenter study conducted in women diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence. The Ajust Sling was implanted and patients were followed postoperatively for up to 29 months. Evaluations were performed to assess postoperative rate of continence, complications, and patient quality of life (QOL).
resultsFrom November 2008 through May 2009, 52 patients were enrolled and underwent a procedure to implant the Ajust Sling. Overall, 86.3 % of the patients who successfully received the Ajust Sling demonstrated total restoration or improvement of continence at the last study visit. QOL scores related to global bladder feeling and lifestyle improved. Only one patient reported the occurrence of mild pain which resolved without treatment or sequelae.
conclusionsIn long-term follow-up, the Ajust Sling was safe and effective, restoring or improving continence in 86.3 % of patients.
