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

introduction and hypothesisRecent evidence supports the clinical and economic advantages of the Manchester procedure (MP) over sacrospinous hysteropexy (SSH) in women treated for mild to moderate uterine prolapse. However, its use remains inconsistent, resulting in a notable variation in current practice. This study explores gynecologists' barriers and facilitators to adoption of the MP, aiming to guide the development of a targeted implementation strategy.

methodsFrom March to June 2025, we conducted semi-structured interviews with gynecologists (n = 12) from the Netherlands in different stages of implementation to identify barriers and facilitators. The updated Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) guided data collection and analysis, ensuring a structured assessment of key domains.

resultsA total of 12 barriers and 20 facilitators were identified in 13 constructs across all CFIR domains. Key facilitators for implementation included strong regional collaboration networks, the low complexity of the surgical technique, peer-driven motivation to align with national trends, and overall trust in the evidence, although the latter varied between clinicians. Main barriers were the personal and organizational effort required for training and implementation, particularly in the absence of an experienced colleague, satisfaction with SSH results, and concerns about lower reimbursement for the MP.

conclusionsThis study identified key barriers and facilitators influencing the adoption of the MP from the perspective of gynecologists, emphasizing the clinical, organizational, and financial factors involved. Addressing these barriers and leveraging facilitators could enhance adoption of the MP, potentially improving treatment outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.
