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

Micturition disorders in elderly people result from the interaction between several different factors such as medication, mobility, metabolism and physical as well as psychological health. Senile incontinence may occur as a single form but is often a mixture of various forms. With increasing knowledge on the pathophysiology of incontinence, prevention and therapy may become more efficient. Age-dependent structural alterations to the urinary bladder are predominantly due to functional disturbances. Neurophysiological studies have led to modified recommendations for micturition behaviour other than double micturition in cases of residual urine or bladder over-expansion in the elderly. The brain, the main point of control of continence and micturition and a postmitotic organ, is very vulnerable to age-dependent disturbances. Research on cerebral organisation and control of continence, in addition to that on receptor-mediated and molecular-biological regulation processes, will have consequences for the health system and the action taken by the medical practitioner.
