Methods	RCT comparing TVT with TOT
Participants	61 women Inclusion criteria: USI Exclusion criteria: predominant urge incontinence; urodynamic detrusor instability; or prolapse Mean age (years; SD): Group A: 54.7 (11.9); Group B: 53.6 (12.5) Mean BMI kg/m² (SD): Group A: 24 (3.2); Group B: 25.2 (4.3) Postmenopausal status: Group A: 18/30; Group B: 16/31 Previous continence surgery: Group A: 4/30; Group B: 1/31 Previous prolapse surgery: Group A: 4/30; Group B: 1/31 ISD: Group A: 4/30; Group B: 3/31
Interventions	Group: A: TOT (n = 30) Group: B: TVT (n = 31)
Outcomes	Subjective cure Objective cure (negative cough stress test) Objective cure and improvement Mean operating time Mean length of hospital stay Bladder perforation Vaginal tape erosion Urethral tape erosion De novo urgency/UUI Voiding dysfunction Sexual dysfunction measured using mean VAS score. No significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of improvement of sexual function
Notes	The full article was retracted at the request of authors because appropriate ethics committee approval was not received prior to starting study. Nevertheless, participants did give written consent to be included in the trial and consented for the procedures. No methodological flaws were identified: the review authors therefore decided to include the data TOT: Uratape mentor‐porges Cystoscopy performed following TVT procedure
Risk of bias
Bias	Authors' judgement	Support for judgement
Random sequence generation (selection bias)	Low risk	Women were randomised using numbered, opaque sealed envelopes containing computer‐generated random allocations in a ratio of 1:1 in balanced blocks of 10. Envelopes were opened in the operating room by a nurse just before starting the procedure
Allocation concealment (selection bias)	Low risk	Adequate
Blinding of participants and personnel (performance bias) All outcomes	Unclear risk	No information
Blinding of outcome assessment (detection bias) All outcomes	Low risk	Outcome assessors were blinded
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias) All outcomes	Unclear risk	No information
