Post-operative outcomes associated with anterior mesh location after laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.

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
objectiveTo investigate the relationship between the anatomical position of the anterior arm of the mesh, measured by ultrasound through the bladder neck-mesh distance technique and the surgical outcomes after laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (SCP) for apical prolapse. STUDY
designIt was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data in a tertiary care hospital. Between January 2019 and September 2019, 63 women who underwent laparoscopic SCP due to apical prolapse were included. Bladder neck-mesh distance was measured immediately after surgery. The pelvic floor was evaluated using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) System before, 1 month, and 2.7 years (mid-term) after the surgery. Post-operative stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scores were also assessed. The correlation between bladder neck-mesh distance and the post-operative outcomes was investigated using the Spearman rank correlation coefficient.
resultsAt mid-term follow-up visit, bladder neck-mesh distance was inversely correlated with the correction of apical prolapse and post-operative SUI. No correlation was detected with the anterior compartment prolapse correction. PGI-I scores were high in all patients at mid-term follow-up, irrespective of bladder neck-mesh distance values.
conclusionThe shorter the bladder neck-mesh distance, the better the outcome for apical compartment repair. Bladder neck-mesh distance had no correlation with the anterior anatomical correction. Shorter bladder neck-mesh distance values were positively correlated to better PGI-I scores and a higher risk of SUI.
