Reasons for dissatisfaction ten years after TVT procedure.

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 the study was to assess the reasons for dissatisfaction 10 years after TVT placement.
methodsPatients who underwent TVT surgery between 1999 and 2001 at two participating units were included. All patients who did not consider themselves to be cured were asked for their reasons.
results141 out of 210 patients (81 %) were available for follow-up (median 116 months). In the group of 56 patients who did not consider themselves cured, the reasons were OAB symptoms in 29 patients (52 %), stress urinary incontinence in 13 patients (23 %), and complaints of mixed urinary incontinence in 8 patients (14 %). 85 % of all patients reporting urgency complaints at the time of follow-up and 66 % of patients with SUI at the time of follow-up did not consider themselves cured.
conclusionsIn most cases overactive bladder symptoms were the reason for dissatisfaction. The results of this study support using composite outcomes to assess the results of surgery for urinary incontinence.
