Modifications of Anti-Incontinence Procedures for Radiated Patients: A Narrative Review.
Review in Current urology reports, 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
purpose of reviewThe mainstay of surgical management for male stress urinary incontinence (SUI) for many years has been the male urethral sling and the artificial urinary sphincter. However, patients with pelvic radiation history are at increased risk for poorer outcomes. This review examines the surgical options for radiated men with SUI, how this history may affect outcomes, and surgical modifications which may optimize results. RECENT
findingsMale urethral slings demonstrate diminished success but may be considered in carefully selected radiated patients. The artificial urinary sphincter remains the gold-standard for radiated men though with increased risk of complications. Key technical modifications include conservative cuff sizing, selective transcorporal placement, and consideration of lower-pressure pressure-regulating balloons. Ongoing technological innovations may address the challenges in this patient population. Successful SUI management in radiated patients requires careful patient selection, consideration of technical modifications, and thorough patient counseling regarding anticipated risks and realistic expectations.
