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

Urinary stress incontinence is a condition that increases with age, influenced by many factors, mainly anatomical pathological ones, determined by changes of muscular pelvic floor, but also by hormonal and local neurological modifications. The aim of the study was an overview of the efficacy of stress urinary incontinencetherapy with transobturatorurethralsling suspension in patients with or without prior hysterectomy. Additionally, we evaluated the effectiveness and the rate of side effects of this method. The study group consisted of 100 patients and, within it, 32 patients (group A)underwent a hysterectomy.We noticed an improvement of symptoms, a reduced discomfort and an increase of quality of life, more prominent in group B (patients without previous hysterectomy) (p=0,0012, p=0,17 respectively, p=0,03). We consider that transobturator approach in treating stress urinary incontinence is a simple, rapid and effective procedure and, not lastly, modern technique that assures a significant improvement of symptomsand quality of life for the patients; positioning the sling along to the insufficient pubourethral ligaments reinforces the structures supporting the urethra; this approach is minimally-invasive with rapid recovery, reduced hospitalization, is cost effective and involves minimal risks of infection, bleeding, etc. moreover, the transobturator tension free sling has some advantages (no pain or tension). The rate of success of the treatment is significantly lower in patients with prior hysterectomy.
