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 hypothesisAutologous pubovaginal slings are an important option for the management of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) but are associated with higher risks of voiding dysfunction. There is no standardized method for tensioning that balances the effectiveness of treatment with the prevention of voiding dysfunction.
methodsWe present a video demonstrating the surgical steps of a novel combination of a fascia lata sling combined with an adjustable tensioning system, as well as an accompanying case series of short-term outcomes. The video demonstrates the use of this system for a 59-year-old female with chronic pain and tobacco use who presented with severe, recurrent SUI after Burch colposuspension.
resultsIn 2025, a total of 9 cases of fascial slings combined with the adjustable tensioning system were performed at this institution, with all patients demonstrating a negative cough stress test after tensioning and with no cases of postoperative urinary retention or voiding dysfunction at least 6 months postoperatively. Data collection for long-term outcomes is ongoing.
conclusionThe combination of an autologous fascial sling with a personalized adjustable tensioning system offers a unique modification to a commercially available system that may provide women with complex SUI and risk factors for mesh complications with a feasible way of achieving continence while mitigating the risks of voiding dysfunction typically seen with a fascial sling.
