Vaginal Vault Prolapse in an Elderly Woman.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

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
Vaginal vault prolapse is a painful condition in which the vaginal cuff descends. This report presents a case of a 65-year-old obese and diabetic female who was suffering from a third-degree vault prolapse. Conventionally used non-surgical treatments, such as exercises for the pelvic floor, are not as effective as surgical approaches for the treatment of third-degree vault prolapse. Post-hysterectomy vaginal vault prolapse can be treated safely and effectively with abdominal sacral colpopexy using a permanent mesh. Due to several risk factors, such as grand parity, advancing age, and poor lifestyle mainly involving exercise to strengthen pelvic floor musculature, the vaginal route of surgery was employed, which was found to be effective, and thus the treatment was successful. In conclusion, such individualized as well as unique approaches to such rare cases can produce efficacious results.
