Flat Magnetic Stimulation for Anal Incontinence: A Prospective Study.
Article in International journal of women's health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Magnetic Stimulation (MS) works on neuromuscular tissue by creating a specific electromagnetic field capable of inducing an intense muscular contraction thereby deeply stimulating pelvic floor muscles and restoring neuromuscular function in a non-invasive manner. Flat MS (FMS) has a more homogeneous electromagnetic field which permits a greater recruitment of muscle fibers. With this study we aimed to evaluate the severity of symptoms and quality of life before and after treatment with Flat Magnetic Stimulation in women with anal incontinence. Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted from September 2023 to December 2023. At baseline and after the treatment, sexual function and the severity of anal incontinence and were evaluated through validated St. Mark's and the Female Sexual Function Index - 19 (FSFI-19) scores respectively. The subjective improvement rate was determined through the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) questionnaire. Results: We observed that there was a significant improvement in the St.Mark score both absolute and stratified according to the degree of severity, whereas there was no evidence of improvement in sexual function, accessed with the FSFI-19 score. Conclusion: FMS represents an effective and safe non-invasive treatment for anal incontinence, resulting in patients' QOL improvement and decrease of incontinence scores.
