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

introduction and hypothesisPelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a benign condition that can adversely affect women's quality of life. Minimally invasive mesh sacrocolpopexy is an effective surgical treatment for POP. This study aims to assess the perioperative, postoperative, and long term (10 years) outcome of a single institution cohort undergoing minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy.

methodsThis retrospective study included all cases of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy performed between 2003 and 2016. Patients were contacted by phone in 2022 for long term follow-up. Data on operative time, length of hospital stay, conversion rate, perioperative injuries, early and late postoperative complications and subjective success rates were collected.

resultsNinety-five patients were included aged 60±12 years. Most patients (72%) presented grade 3 POP. Grade of prolapse (3±0.4 vs 3±0.5, p<0.01) and hospital stay (3±1.1 vs 3.1±1.7; p<0.01) were significantly higher in patients who developed early postoperative complications (1

conclusionsLaparoscopic mesh sacrocolpopexy is a safe surgical technique that shows satisfying and consistent long-term results despite the occasional onset of new urinary symptoms.
