Modified McCall culdoplasty versus Shull suspension in pelvic prolapse primary repair: a retrospective study.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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 hypothesisUterosacral ligament suspension at the time of primary prolapse repair represents a well-established surgical option. Our aim was to compare the effectiveness, complications rate, and functional results of modified McCall culdoplasty and Shull suspension.
methodsPatients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy and cuff suspension for pelvic organ prolapse were retrospectively analyzed. McCall culdoplasty (group A) or Shull suspension (group B) were performed according to surgeon choice based on age and sexual activity. Perioperative data, objective, and subjective cure rate were noted.
resultsA total of 339 patients (215 in group A and 124 in group B) completed follow-up. Operating time and blood loss were slightly higher in group B. The complications rate was similar in the two groups. Anatomical outcomes in terms of recurrence and reoperation rate did not show any statistically significant differences. POP-Q items analysis revealed only a different total vaginal length between groups (8 mm longer in group B). Functional outcomes were similar in the two groups as was patient satisfaction.
conclusionBoth uterosacral ligament suspension procedures were shown to be safe and effective. There were no clinically significant differences with regard to surgical data, complications, anatomical, functional, and subjective outcomes between modified McCall culdoplasty and Shull suspension.
