Incidence and treatment of postoperative voiding dysfunction after the tension-free vaginal tape procedure.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
introduction and hypothesisOne of the most commonly experienced postoperative complications of the tension-free vaginal tape procedure (TVT) is voiding dysfunction (VD). The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate our incidence of postoperative VD, our results after tape mobilisation, and whether demographic data could predict VD.
methodsA total of 715 women underwent a TVT procedure without concomitant operative procedures. In the case of persisting VD transvaginal tape mobilisation was performed up to 3 weeks postoperatively. The vaginal incision was reopened and downward extraction with a clamp was performed. Demographic data were investigated to predict postoperative VD.
resultsA total of 28 patients (3.9%) experienced VD. Seventeen patients (2.4%) underwent transvaginal tape mobilisation an average of 11.6 days (range 2-21) after the primary TVT procedure. No complications were observed in connection with the mobilisation. Eleven patients (1.5%) performed clean intermittent catheterisation (CIC) for a period of more than 1 day, with an average of 14.4 days (range 3-63). After tape mobilisation 16 women (94%) were relieved of their voiding dysfunction and were continent. One woman was somewhat incontinent after the procedure. Age, parity and previous caesarean section did not predict VD. Previous incontinence surgery might predict VD.
conclusionsThe incidence of VD after the TVT procedure requiring tape mobilisation was 2.4%. Relief of the VD was obtained after tape mobilisation in all patients. Tape mobilisation is a safe and effective treatment for postoperative VD.
