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: We report a case of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) following transvaginal mesh (TVM) surgery that was successfully treated conservatively using a urethral catheter with low-pressure intermittent suction. Case Presentation: A 78-year-old woman underwent TVM surgery for cystocele. During the surgery, bladder perforation occurred, which was repaired transvaginally. After the urethral catheter removal, she was diagnosed with VVF. We reinserted a new urethral catheter and added low-pressure intermittent suction to the catheter, which gradually decreased the amount of incontinence, and the patient was successfully cured. Conclusion: Urethral catheter with low-pressure intermittent suction may be an option when catheterization alone does not provide adequate drainage of VVF.
