Robotic Sacrocolpopexy-Is It the Treatment of Choice for Advanced Apical Pelvic Organ Prolapse?
Review in Current urology reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of reviewPelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a highly prevalent condition among women that, although non-life threatening, can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life (QOL). Sacrocolpopexy (SC) has been touted by many as the "gold standard," citing superior anatomic success rates compared to transvaginal approaches for apical prolapse repair. In line with current trends throughout the surgical field, robotic-assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (RSC) has rapidly gained popularity. This review will present the most contemporary evidence examining RSC and discuss whether it has met criteria to qualify as the "treatment of choice" for advanced apical vaginal prolapse. RECENT
findingsRecent findings support the superior durability of SC for apical prolapse repair compared to native tissue vaginal approaches. Recent evidence demonstrates that anatomic outcomes of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy, including RSC, are no different than those of traditional ASC. Low quality evidence suggests lower rates of dyspareunia with SC compared to vaginal repairs. RSC may be cost-effective when compared to ASC. When compared to LSC, however, RSC is more expensive and associated with longer operating times. RSC is an excellent option for many women who desire the most durable option for definitive repair of advanced apical POP.
