Best practices for repair of iatrogenic bladder injury.
Article in AJOG global reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Gynecologic surgery carries a known risk of injury to the urinary tract, especially in the presence of risk factors. Injury to the bladder, particularly a mechanical injury, is more common than injury to the ureter. Urinary tract injuries occur in 0.3% to 0.8% of all gynecologic procedures, and injuries to the bladder occur in 0.05% to 0.66% of such surgeries. The risk of bladder injury increases in hysterectomy procedures. Most research studies have cited occurrence of bladder injuries to be 1.0% to 1.8% in laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomies and vaginal hysterectomies. Despite its frequency, there is limited research on best practices for bladder injury repair. The authors performed a literature search through the PubMed database using the terms "bladder anatomy," "bladder injury," "bladder repair," "cystotomy," "routine cystoscopy," and "vesicovaginal fistula." This review uses gynecologic and trauma literature and discusses prevention, recognition, types of iatrogenic bladder injuries, their clinical significance, current guidelines on bladder injury repair, and the expected follow-up care, and concludes by identifying areas for further research.
