Laparoscopic duplication of the uterosacral ligaments following hysterectomy for stage III-IV apical pelvic organ prolapse.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Different techniques have been proposed over the last decades to avoid the vaginal vault prolapse following hysterectomy for severe (stage III-IV) apical pelvic organ prolapse. In this scenario, the laparoscopic duplication of the uterosacral ligaments to the vaginal apex might represent a simple alternative procedure, associated with low morbidity and optimal surgical outcomes. In this paper, we present the preliminary results of 25 consecutive patients, who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy followed by uterosacral ligament duplication for stage III-IV apical pelvic organ prolapse. A detailed description of the surgical procedure is also provided.
