Evaluation of 30-day complication rates following vaginal anterior compartment repair with and without graft augmentation in a propensity score matched cohort.
Article in World journal of urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 determine if graft augmentation with anterior colporrhaphy (AC+G) is associated with higher complication rates compared to native tissue repair (AC). MATERIALS AND
methodsRetrospective cohort study using data from the ACS-NSQIP database between 2010 and 2017. CPT codes were used to identify women undergoing AC+G and AC. Propensity scores for the likelihood of undergoing AC+G were calculated and were used to match to women undergoing native tissue repair at a ratio of 1:2. The primary outcome was the composite complication rate. Descriptive statistics are reported as means with standard deviations for parametric data and as medians and interquartile ranges for non-parametric data. Pairwise comparisons were performed using Fisher's exact test, Wilcoxon rank-sum and Student's t test as appropriate. Multivariable logistic regression was then used to adjust for confounders to identify statistically significant factors associated with the likelihood of experiencing a complication after prolapse repair.
results582 women met inclusion criteria for AC+G and were matched with 1164 women undergoing AC. There were no differences in preoperative characteristics between groups. There was no difference in the composite complication rate, (10.8% vs. 8.5%, p = 0.13) between groups. Dependent functional status (aOR 4.31, 95% CI 1.96-13.58) was the strongest predictor of the likelihood of a complication: other significant predictors were operating time greater than 20 min (aOR 1.68, 95% CI 1.19-2.38) and ASA class greater than 2 (aOR 1.44, 95% CI 1.01-2.05).
conclusionThere is no increase in 30-day complication rates in women undergoing AC+G compared to a matched cohort of those undergoing AC alone.
