[Transanal procedure for functional bowel diseases].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The transanal operative procedure for the treatment of obstructive defecation syndrome (ODS) can be secondarily applied in cases of failure or ineffectiveness of conservative treatment. Clinically established transanal procedures are rectocele resection (RR), mucosectomy for internal rectal prolapse according to the Rehn-Delorme procedure (MR) and stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR Contour Transtar). Only few studies have indicated the value of RR and MR in the treatment of obstructive diseases and in general study quality and evidence level are low. There might be an indication in rectocele-associated symptoms, such as incomplete evacuation, straining and digitation. In contrast the STARR procedure has been well characterized by a large number of high quality studies providing an elevated evidence level for the treatment of ODS. Functional results are available with a follow-up of 1 year up to 68 months postoperatively. Response rates of up to 90% were reported whereas recurrence rates were given as a maximum of 18% at 68 months follow-up. In summary the STARR procedure provides good functional results for conservative refractory outlet obstruction with minor morbidity and outcome seems to remain stable in the long-term follow-up.
