1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: This study aimed to compare the outcomes of early versus delayed removal of the urinary catheter after total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH), focusing on urinary retention, re-catheterization, urinary tract infection (UTI), and hospital stay duration. Subjects and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted, enrolling patients who underwent TLH. Participants were divided into two groups based on the timing of urinary catheter removal: early removal (immediately post-surgery) and delayed removal (≥18-24 h post-surgery). The primary outcomes included the incidence of temporary urinary retention (inability to void within 6 h of catheter removal requiring re-catheterization, the rate of UTI, and the duration of hospital stay). Statistical analyses were performed to compare outcomes between the two groups. Results: A total of 128 women were analyzed (early catheter removal [ECR]: 62, delayed catheter removal: 66). Early removal of the urinary catheter was associated with an increased risk of temporary urinary retention. The risk difference was 9.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] [2.3-17.0]); Conclusion: ECR after laparoscopic hysterectomy increases the risk of transient urinary retention and re-catheterization, with a possible trend toward lower UTI rates and a modest reduction in hospital stay. A risk-stratified, individualized approach may be preferable.
