Exploring the Challenges of Using Minimal Invasive Surgery to Treat Stress Urinary Incontinence: Insights from a Retrospective Case-Control Study.

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
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a significant global health issue that particularly affects females, leads to notable societal and economic challenges and significantly affects the quality of life. This study focuses on the comparative analysis of two established surgical interventions, tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) and transobturator tape (TOT), at a single center and applied to 455 women suffering from SUI, with a mean follow-up period of 102 ± 30 months for TVT and 80.4 ± 13 months for TOT. Our findings indicate that, in comparison to TVT, the TOT procedure demonstrates fewer early and late post-operative complications in patient outcomes (1.41% vs. 17.64% and; 5.66% vs. 12.74%, both respectively). However, the TVT procedure shows a modestly favorable outcome in the risk of recurrence of SUI, compared to TOT (0% vs. 3.7%); the TOT procedure has also proven to be more effective in alleviating of urgency symptoms, although not at a statistically significant level (
