1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundObstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) is a condition that is frequently caused by rectocele and rectal intussusception. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a modified Bresler procedure for the treatment of ODS. The outcomes of this modified procedure were compared with the stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) procedure.

methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of the clinical data from 76 female patients who presented with ODS between June 2014 and June 2016. The patients were divided into two treatment groups, namely Modified and STARR. Patients in the Modified group (

resultsPatients in the Modified group exhibited shorter operative times and fewer post-operative complications (both

conclusionsOur modified procedure may be an effective treatment strategy for patients experiencing ODS caused by rectocele and rectal intussusception, with fewer complications and effective relief of symptoms.
