Efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation for poor functional results of J-pouch ileoanal anastomosis.
Article in Techniques in coloproctology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purposeIleoanal anastomoses (J-pouches) are an alternative to permanent ostomy. The functional outcomes associated with the use of J-pouches are usually good, but continence disorders persist in a significant number of cases and have a negative impact on quality of life. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) for poor functional results after J-pouch ileoanal anastomosis.
methodsPatients suffering from severe fecal incontinence (FI) following coloproctectomy underwent a staged implant SNS procedure. Demographic data and functional results for FI episodes, urgencies per week, frequency of stools, ability to defer defecation, and Wexner scores were obtained at specified intervals. Patients also completed quality-of-life assessments.
resultsFour female patients were included in this analysis. All 4 experienced active and passive FI at baseline and subsequently underwent test stimulation with a 75 % success rate. Three received definitive implants. These 3 patients experienced improvement in functional outcomes at 1, 3, and 6 month assessments. Improvements in quality of life were also noted.
conclusionsOur preliminary study suggests that SNS is effective for the treatment of poor functional results following J-pouch ileoanal anastomosis; however, larger studies with long-term follow-up are needed for confirmation of our findings.
