Lumbosacral Discitis and Osteomyelitis after Sacrocolpopexy: A Case Series and Review of Management.
Review in International urogynecology journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introduction and hypothesisLumbosacral discitis and osteomyelitis constitute a rare but devastating complication after mesh sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse.
methodsWe present a case series of 3 patients at a single institution and a literature review of 30 patients suffering from this complication along with presenting symptoms, evaluation with laboratory and imaging findings, and management.
resultsLumbosacral discitis can present after sacrocolpopexy of any route (abdominal, laparoscopic, and robotic) and with various suture types and tacking devices. Patients presented with lower back pain at varying time frames and with elevated inflammatory markers, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP).
conclusionThe majority of cases required both excision of pelvic mesh via laparotomy or laparoscopy in combination with an extended course of intravenous (IV) antibiotics.
