1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo assess the outcomes of two different incision techniques used in the surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with concomitant anterior vaginal wall prolapse and to identify possible associated risk factors with a medium-term follow-up in patients who underwent TOT procedure.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of 233 women who underwent transobturator tape procedure with cystocele repair. The women were divided into two groups according to two different incision techniques. The outcomes were analyzed considering five postoperative parameters: objective cure, subjective cure, patient satisfaction, resolution of urgency urinary incontinence and complications. The mean follow-up period was 43.6 months (range 12-85).

resultsA total of 226 women were documented in this study: 79 women in single-incision technique (group 1) and 147 women in double-incision technique (group 2). The objective and subjective cure and patient satisfaction (visual analog scale score ≥80) rates were 89.8, 73.4, 84.8 % and 90.4, 74.1, 86.4 % in group 1 and group 2, respectively. Complications reported according to the Clavien-Dindo classification were grade I 5.2 %, grade II 42.1 %, grade IIIa 47.3 %, and grade IIIb 5.2 %, and grade I 22.2 %, grade II 77.7 %, grade IIIa 0 % and grade IIIb 0 % in group 1 and group 2, respectively. The mean operative time was significantly shorter in group 1 compared to group 2 (p = 0.001).

conclusionsBoth incision techniques have satisfactory outcomes in the surgical treatment of SUI with cystocele; nevertheless, the postoperative complications favor the double-incision technique.
