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

It is estimated that 31-44% of all patients with symptomatic POP and/or UI suffer from sexual dysfunction. We aimed to validate the PISQ-12 in pre-and postmenopausal women and to assess the sexual function before and after POP reconstructive surgery. One hundred and forty sexually active patients were hospitalized due to symptomatic POP and 50 healthy controls were enrolled into the study. The patients were asked to complete PISQ-12, the FSFI and Beck's depression scale questionnaires twice. The Cronbach's alpha (α) was used to estimate the internal consistency. The scores were compared using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). Improvement in the QoSL (quality of sexual life) was observed in each age group of women. Pre-menopausal patients' QoSL was much better, both before and after surgery (29.62 and 34.64 points, respectively). The correlation between questionnaires before surgery was 0.63, and after was -0.76. The α value for the PISQ-12 was 0.83 before the procedure and 0.80 afterwards. In all the groups, the test-retest reliability was good-ICC = 0.72. Vaginal reconstructive surgeries improve the QoSL. The only demographic factor influencing the QoSL was the menopausal status. The Polish version of the PISQ-12 is a reliable and responsive instrument for assessing the sexual function in patients with diagnosed POP and/or UI.
