Sacral neuromodulation: troubleshooting needle placement.
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 3 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
introduction and hypothesisThe objective was to develop an instructional video that utilizes fluoroscopic images and anatomical landmarks to increase the surgeon's ability to troubleshoot optimal placement of the foramen needle and lead during a stage I sacral neuromodulation (SNM) procedure.
methodsEight different examples of suboptimal foramen needle placement with subsequent corrections during a SNM procedure were performed and recorded on a fresh female cadaver.
resultsFluoroscopic images were obtained during the procedure, and illustrations of the posterior aspect of the sacrum highlighting the S3 foramina and nerve are shown for anatomical comparison.
conclusionsThis video demonstrates how to efficiently identify and correct suboptimal foramen needle placement in order to obtain optimal lead placement during an SNM procedure. Understanding the relationship between the bony landmarks on fluoroscopy and the S3 nerve and foramen are important in order to understand how to correct a suboptimal foramen needle and thus achieve optimal lead placement.
