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 safety, efficacy of double-sling procedure (DS) for the surgical management of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with concomitant anterior wall prolapse (AVWP) and to identify if less synthetic material implantation will decrease the complication rates without decreasing the high cure rates.

methodsWe reviewed the women who underwent DS in two institutions from January 2009 to December 2013. In DS, there are two transobturator tapes inserted from two different routes for the surgical management of SUI with concomitant AVWP. POP-Q was used for anatomical evaluation of prolapse. SUI was assessed by cough stress test and ICIQ-SF questionnaire. We accepted that the patient was satisfied if the visual analog scale score was ≥80. The severity of urinary incontinence was classified by ICIQ-SF. The women were evaluated at the 3 and 12 months and annually.

resultsA total of 74 women met the requirements for inclusion and had sufficient records for analysis. The mean follow-up period was 35.4 months (range 12-60). Operative time was 33.2 ± 6.2. The objective cure and subjective success rates of SUI were 87.8 and 93.2 %, respectively. The satisfaction from the surgery was also high with 86.5 % rate. The anatomical success in our series was rather high with 96 % rate. Our overall complication rate was 12.2 %. Mesh extrusion rate was 0 %.

conclusionsDouble-sling procedure is feasible, efficient, and safe. Reducing the mesh size did not have a detrimental effect on the outcomes of SUI treatment and simultaneous AVWP repair.
