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.

Abstract

purposeTo assess the effectiveness of a long-acting anesthetic injection into the obturator membrane for pain relief in women undergoing trans-obturator tension-free vaginal tape.

methodsA total of 22 women were randomized for the intra-operative injection of bupivacaine into one of their obturator membranes: the left or right side. All the participants were asked to define their groin pain on a visual analog scale (scored 0-10 cm) at 1, 6, 12, and 24 h post-operative. For each woman, pain scores were compared between the local anesthetic-injected side and the opposite side.

resultsStatistically significant differences were not observed in groin pain scores between the bupivacaine injection side and the no injection side at 1 h (p = 0.76), 6 h (p = 1), 12 h (p = 0.95), and 24 h (p = 0.82) post-operative.

conclusionIn women who undergo trans-obturator tension-free vaginal tape procedures, intra-operative intra-obturator injection of local anesthetics is not effective in alleviating the characteristic post-operative groin pain.

trial registrationThis study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03479996).
