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

Introduction: Persistent descending mesocolon is a congenital fixation abnormality where the left-sided colon deviates medially. When significantly displaced to the right, it may affect sacrocolpopexy. We report two cases of persistent descending mesocolon in which robot-assisted sacrocolpopexy was successfully performed with mesh fixation to the sacral promontory from the left side of the mesosigmoid. Case Presentation: Two patients with pelvic organ prolapse underwent robot-assisted sacrocolpopexy. In both cases, the sigmoid colon was displaced to the right, making exposure of the sacral promontory from the right side of the mesosigmoid challenging. Therefore, the sacral promontory was exposed and mesh fixed from the left side of the mesosigmoid. The postoperative course was uneventful. Conclusion: When the sigmoid colon is displaced rightward due to persistent descending mesocolon, sacral promontory fixation from the left mesosigmoid may be a safe, feasible option.
