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
Objective: To compare the risk of opioid use, antimicrobial utilization, and postoperative complications, including paralytic ileus, between patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy and sacrocolpopexy. Methods: Using a global federated health research network, we performed a retrospective cohort analysis. After 1:1 propensity score matching for age, BMI, race, ethnicity, diabetes, and hypertension, 993 patients were included per group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis assessed antimicrobial and opioid use, resistance, and opioid abuse or dependence. Results: Mean follow-up was significantly longer in the sacrocolpopexy group (7.67 ± 4.66 years) than in the hysterectomy group (3.13 ± 4.23 years). Hysterectomy patients experienced a higher mean number of postoperative complications although these results were not statistically significant (p = 0.0688). Postoperative antimicrobial use was significantly higher in the hysterectomy group (25.9 %) than sacrocolpopexy (14.1 %) (HR 3.84, 95 % CI: 2.99-4.93; p < 0.0001). Opioid use was also more frequent in hysterectomy patients (44.4 % vs. 15.6 %; HR 5.68, 95 % CI: 4.69-6.88; p < 0.0001), with a higher incidence of abuse/dependence (6.04 % vs. 2.02 %; HR 6.91, 95 % CI: 4.07-11.73). No significant difference was observed in antimicrobial resistance (p = 0.4409). Paralytic ileus was rare and not significantly different between groups. Conclusion: Hysterectomy was associated with greater risk of postoperative opioid use, opioid abuse/dependence, and antimicrobial use. These findings support individualized surgical planning and proactive postoperative management.
