Morbidity Associated with Autologous Fascia Lata Harvesting for Pelvic Floor Surgery.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2026. 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
introduction and hypothesisFascia lata (FL) is an alternative to mesh for pubovaginal sling (PVS) or abdominal sacrocolpopexy/hysteropexy (ASC). Literature on perioperative complications is sparse. We aim to evaluate the morbidity associated with the FL harvest for treatment of female pelvic floor dysfunction.
methodsWomen undergoing FL harvest Feb 2021-May 2025 at a surgeon's private practice and tertiary public hospital. The same harvest technique was used, with graft size depending on the indication (mean size ASC; 13 × 4 cm; PVS 10 × 2 cm). Thigh issues were ascertained by direct questioning and serial follow-up.
resultsTwo hundred and one women had FL harvesting, with median follow-up of 12 months (range 3-67). Median age 66 years (range 35-81) and mean BMI 27.7 kg/m
conclusionsMost concerns were minor and required no intervention. No functional deficits were reported and complaints decreased over time.
