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

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) use in urogynecology is expanding as it shows good results with minimal side effects. We present three new indications of PRP use in urogynecology that have not been previously reported. Our case series demonstrated that PRP improved wound healing and recovery in a woman with chronic obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) after home delivery, decreased pain in a patient suffering from vulvodynia, and enhanced epithelization in recurrent vaginal stenosis after Fournier gangrene. We have also reviewed patient selection criteria, PRP preparation prerequisites, and techniques. A safe, simple protocol with an optimal platelet yield without using commercial PRP kits is described.
