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

Urethral prolapse (UP) is a rare benign condition, typically seen in prepubertal girls and postmenopausal women, with estrogen deficiency and raised intra-abdominal pressure as common factors. We report the first documented case of UP in a child following female genital mutilation (FGM). A 9-year-old Somali girl presented with painful genital swelling six months after undergoing type II FGM. Examination confirmed UP, and surgical excision was performed successfully. Recovery was uneventful, with no recurrence at six months. This case highlights FGM as a potential risk factor for UP and underscores the importance of early recognition and timely surgical intervention.
