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

backgroundStress urinary incontinence in women is a common problem that impairs the quality of life in patients. The extraordinary number of procedures to treat stress urinary incontinence reflects a lack of consensus on an appropriate intervention for this problem.

objectivesThe current study aimed to compare the results of transobturator tape (TOT) procedure and anterior colporrhaphy with the Kelly's Plication to treat women with stress urinary incontinence. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis randomized clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with stress urinary incontinence referred to Afzalipour Hospital in Kerman, Iran. The patients were randomly divided into two surgery groups and were subsequently assessed regarding the outcomes of the procedures, incontinence symptoms and complications during the follow-up period.

resultsThe cure rates at follow-up period of one month, six months and one year after surgery were 86.7%, 80% and 80% in the TOT group versus 80%, 70% and 66.7% in the anterior colporrhaphy with the Kelly's Plication group, respectively. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the aforementioned follow-up periods (P = 0.68, P = 0.54 and P = 0.22, respectively).

conclusionsThe current results showed no significant differences between the outcomes of the two procedures at short-term follow-up. However, the results might have changed in the long term.
