Predictive approach in managing voiding dysfunction after surgery for deep endometriosis: a personalized nomogram.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 hypothesisThe aim was to develop a nomogram based on clinical and surgical factors to predict the likelihood of voiding dysfunction after surgery for deep endometriosis.
methodsThis was a retrospective study of 789 patients (training set) who underwent surgery for deep endometriosis with colorectal involvement from January 2005 through December 2017 at Tenon University Hospital. A multivariate logistic regression analysis of selected risk factors was performed to construct a nomogram to predict postoperative voiding dysfunction. The nomogram was externally validated in 333 patients (validation set) from Rouen University Hospital.
resultsPostoperative voiding dysfunction occurred in 23% of the patients (180/789) in the training set. Age, colorectal involvement/management, colpectomy and parametrectomy were the main factors associated with an increased risk of voiding dysfunction and were included in the nomogram. The predictive model had an internal concordance index of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.77-0.81) after the 200 repetitions of bootstrap sample corrections and showed good calibration. The ROC area related to the nomogram for external validation was 0.74 (95% CI: 0.72-0.76).
conclusionsThe nomogram we present here, based on four clinical and imaging characteristics, could be useful in predicting postoperative voiding dysfunction for women undergoing surgery for deep endometriosis. Patients could thus be better informed about this postoperative risk and the surgical strategy adapted according to individual risk. The accuracy of the tool was validated externally but additional validation is required.
