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

Currently, pelvic floor ultrasound allows us to correctly visualize the synthetic material used in stress urinary incontinence surgery. The objective of this study is the construction of a score and its correlation with the SUU clinic. During the study period, 81 patients with transobturator slings were studied using ultrasound. Through multivariate analysis, the statistically significant variables were the distance from the sling to the urethral wall (p = 0.004), the shape of the sling at rest (p = 0.003), and the symmetry of the mesh (p = 0.016). Through these variables, the construction of a score was carried out. Once the model was constructed, its internal validation was carried out to determine the discrimination capacity of patients who present clinical stress and those who do not, with an area under the curve of 0.848 (95% CI (0.72−0.97), p < 0.001). This simple score using three ultrasound variables serves to adequately and objectively discriminate patients who have successful surgery and absence of clinical effort.
