Transvaginal native-tissue repair of enterocele.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2018. 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
introduction and hypothesisEnterocele repair represents a challenge for pelvic surgeons. Surgical management implies enterocele sac removal. Subsequently, hernial port closure and adequate suspension may be achieved with Shull uterosacral ligament suspension (ULS).
methodsA 55-year-old woman with symptomatic stage 3 enterocele was admitted for transvaginal uterosacral ligaments suspension according to the described technique.
resultsSurgical procedure was successfully achieved without complications. Final examination revealed excellent pelvic supports and preservation of vaginal length. This step-by-step video tutorial may represent an important tool to improve surgical know-how.
conclusionsTransvaginal uterosacral ligaments suspension provides a safe and effective technique for enterocele repair without the use of prosthetic materials. Identifying uterosacral ligaments, proper suture placement, and reapproximation of pubocervical and rectovaginal fascias with closure of the hernial port are the key points to achieve surgical success.
