Reflections on 30 Years of Taking Care of Patients with Pelvic Floor Disorders.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Over the past three decades care of patients with pelvic floor disorders has changed dramatically. Fecal incontinence surgery that initially was repair or encircling the anal sphincter now is treated as a first line with sacral nerve stimulation. Rectal prolapse surgery has benefited from minimally invasive approaches and an abdominal approach is considered even in older frail individuals. Medication for constipation has dramatically helped more patients avoid surgery. A multidisciplinary approach with surgeons operating during the same anesthesia on the middle/anterior pelvis and posterior pelvis is common. Evaluation of outcomes and patient-reported outcomes are the norm. We have come a long way toward care of this group of patients, but we still have huge steps to achieve to optimize care as we look toward the next 30 years.
