Incidence and Risk Factors of Postoperative Urinary Retention in Gynecologic Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Clinical epidemiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a frequent complication after gynecologic surgery, with wide variability in reported incidence due to differences in procedures and outcome definitions, and a lack of standardized quantitative synthesis. Objective: To estimate the incidence of POUR following gynecologic surgery and summarize associated risk factors and preventive strategies. Methods: A PRISMA-based systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, EBSCO, and ScienceDirect. The review protocol was prospectively registered on the Open Science Framework (OSF; DOI: 10.17605/OSF.IO/W8CYR). Random-effects models were applied to estimate pooled incidence, with subgroup analyses by procedure and POUR definition. Associated factors were synthesized narratively. Results: Thirty-four studies including 20,466 patients were analyzed. The pooled incidence of POUR was 16.1% (95% CI 12.8-20.1; I Conclusion: POUR is a common, procedure-dependent complication of gynecologic surgery. Procedure-specific risk stratification and standardized perioperative pathways are needed to reduce POUR and improve postoperative recovery.
