Endoscopic injection of botulinum toxin to prevent pouch contractions in a patient with Indiana pouch diversion.

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
Continent urinary diversion is the preferred method of bladder substitution for many patients who undergo cystectomy for benign conditions. Additional interventions are often necessitated after a continent diversion to achieve continence. One such procedure is the injection of botulinum toxin into the neobladder. Previous injections into the pouch bladder have been performed percutaneously. Here we present a less invasive endoscopic injection technique where flexible equipment has been used successfully to inject botulinum toxin into the pouch bladder via the pouch stoma. We demonstrate the feasibility of the injection and its efficacy in reducing pouch contractions and the patient's symptoms. A 36-year-old female presented with persistent urinary incontinence symptoms 1 year after Indiana pouch diversion. Despite previous conservative measures and ileocecal valve reinforcement surgery, incontinence persisted. The endoscopic injection, facilitated through the pouch stoma, proved effective in decreasing muscle contractions and alleviating spasm-like sensations without observed side effects. This case shows the feasibility, safety and efficacy of botulinum toxin injection into Indiana pouch endoscopically.
