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
objectiveTo compare the efficiency of the partial mesh removal (PMR) versus subtotal mesh removal (SMR) on urogenital distress and sexual functions in patients who experienced vaginal mesh extrusion. MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween June 2014 and January 2018, 45 patients who experienced vaginal mesh extrusion following midurethral sling surgeries and therefore underwent mesh excision were evaluated retrospectively. The effectiveness of PMR and SMR was compared using the "Urinary Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6)" and "Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)" forms, at the 6th month postoperatively.
resultsFourteen PMR-patients and 21 SMR-patients who met the study criteria were evaluated for the study. There was a significant improvement in UDI-6 scores and FSFI scores in both PMR and SMR groups at the 6
conclusionIn cases where extrusion is developed, subtotal/total mesh removal provides a significant improvement in patients' complaints of sexual dysfunction related to extrusion.
