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 hypothesisThe aim of this study was to culturally adapt and psychometrically evaluate the Polish version of the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Vaginal Symptoms (ICIQ-VS), which consists of three subscales-vaginal symptoms (VS), sexual matters (SM), and quality of life (QoL)-and is designed to assess women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP).
methodsThe translation and adaptation followed the official ICIQ guidelines. Psychometric evaluation included reliability (internal consistency using Cronbach's alpha and test-retest reliability using the intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC
resultsThe study included 152 women (mean age 56.8 ± 12.9 years) for whom POP had been assessed by a gynecologist using the POP-Q staging system (stages 0-IV). Cronbach's alpha values were 0.903 for the VS subscale and 0.735 for the SM subscale. Test-retest reliability was excellent (ICC
conclusionsThe Polish ICIQ-VS demonstrated generally good psychometric properties for assessing women with POP.
