[Adjustable transobturatoric sling system in men : diagnosis and therapy recommendations to persistent pain].

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
backgroundIn addition to artificial sphincters, male slings are recommended in the current guidelines for the treatment of persistent male stress incontinence. Today, several sling systems are available. Well-known complications of all sling systems are infections, erosion, residual urine/urinary retention, de novo urgency, and postoperative pain. DISCUSSION: Compared to retropubic implanted adjustable sling systems or functional slings, pain is more common after transobturatoric implantation of adjustable sling systems. Early postoperative pain is very common. In contrast, persistent pain is rare. However, the treatment of persistent pain is a large challenge for urologists and patients. There are no recommendations for diagnostic workup or treatment.
resultsAfter pain classification, pain management should be started with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and/or tricyclic antidepressive agents, if necessary treatment escalation with a weak opioid and if not effective interventional procedures should be performed. Sling explantation is only necessary in rare cases.
