Transvaginal Pezzer Catheter Drainage in Treatment-Resistant Deep Pelvic Abscess After Cesarean Section: Case Report.

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
A pelvic abscess occurs as an infectious complication of surgical intervention or as a result of infectious processes. Pelvic abscesses may be treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics, which often fail, and surgical intervention is necessary. Surgical procedures include abscess drainage through laparotomy or laparoscopy. Alternative approaches include imaging-guided abscess drainage in conjunction with antibiotics through transabdominal, transrectal, transvaginal or transgluteal routes. In this case, a Pezzer catheter was successfully applied to a deep pelvic abscess that was drained via the transvaginal approach. Transvaginal drainage with a Pezzer catheter following surgical drainage may be considered an effective treatment option for recurrent postoperative midline deep pelvic abscesses. Although this type of catheter is preferred by general surgeons, the advantage of using it vaginally by gynecologists offers an effective treatment approach. Additionally, it has a multifenestrated portion, which reduces the possibility of blockage during drainage.
