Tissue selecting technique for adult women with low rectovaginal fistula.
Article in Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the effect of tissue selecting technique (TST) on low rectovaginal fistula (RVF) repair.
methodsPatients with low RVF were included in the prospective study from August 2009 and January 2013 in xx hospital. Patients assigned to the TST or control groups based on the different surgical methods. Surgical success, complications, and quality of life were evaluated. Patients were followed up for 1-3 years.
resultsA total of 81 patients were included in the study. Foutry-one were in the TST group, and 40 were in the control group. Surgery was successful in 100% of patients who underwent TST, and in 95% of patients who underwent the classical perineal approach. Less patients experienced pain (72% vs 90%, p = 0.04) and edema (6% vs 25%, p < 0.001) in the TST group compared with the control group. In addition, the QOL score was significantly higher in the TST group (122 ± 21 vs 111 ± 12, p = 0.02).
conclusionThe TST stapler approach appears to be appropriate for the treatment of low RVF in adults.
