Postoperative Mobility After Partial Semitendinosus Tendon Harvesting in Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery: Results of a Prospective Observational Study.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 hypothesisThis study investigates the postoperative mobility following partial semitendinosus tendon harvesting performed during pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair using the Hornemann Tendon Transplantation (HoTT®) method. The aim was to evaluate whether the procedure causes functional impairments and which patient-related factors influence postoperative mobility outcomes.
methodsA single-arm prospective observational study was conducted involving 142 women with POP-Q stage II-IV prolapse who underwent laparoscopic sacropexy with partial autologous semitendinosus tendon harvest. Mobility was assessed preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively using the validated Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility (PLUS-M™). Statistical analysis included mixed logistic regression with age, BMI, and time as fixed effects and patient identity as a random effect.
resultsMean age was 60.1 ± 10.3 years; mean BMI was 24.3 ± 3.7 kg/m
conclusionsPartial semitendinosus tendon harvesting in HoTT® surgery does not impair mobility and is associated with significant improvements in function and quality of life. Advanced age and higher BMI mildly reduce postoperative mobility potential but do not contraindicate the procedure.
