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

Background: To describe the surgical technique and operative outcomes of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (V-NOTES) for sacrocolpopexy with or without robotic surgical system in patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Methods: Patients with POP undergoing traditional transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (TV-NOTES) or robotic transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RV-NOTES) for sacrocolpopexy performed by one surgeon from Sep 2020 to Jan 2023 in our hospital were included in this study. The baseline demographics and operative outcomes were collected and analyzed. In addition, some surgical skills were presented. The operative outcomes of V-NOTES for sacrocolpopexy performed by three beginners were also presented. Results: Eight patients who underwent TV-NOTES, and two patients who underwent RV-NOTES were included in this study. The mean operative time was 180 ± 49 min, and the estimated blood loss was 107 ± 82 ml for these ten cases. Particularly, the operative time of the two patients who underwent RV-NOTES was 275 and 132 min, while the estimated blood loss (EBL) was 100 and 50 ml respectively. During the follow-up period, no mesh exposure and recurrence were observed. In addition, five cases of TV-NOTES for sacrocolpopexy by beginners were all successfully completed. Conclusion: Both TV-NOTES and RV-NOTES appeared to be feasible and safe for sacrocolpopexy.
