[Oral anticholinergics in overactive bladder].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Behavioural therapy and anticholinergics are the mainstays in the treatment of symptoms of overactive bladder in patients with idiopathic and neurogenic detrusor overactivity; they are the first-line treatment. Oxybutynin, propiverine, tolterodine and trospium chloride as well as the "newcomers" solifenacin and darifenacin are comparable in regards to their efficacy. However, based on different pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics with different resorption velocity, different metabolisation and different CNS penetration, the profile of adverse events is different, qualitatively and quantitatively. Substances that are resorbed slowly or available as slow-release formulations are tolerated better. Lipophilic anticholinergics which pass the blood-brain barrier may compromise cognitive functions, especially in geriatric patients, who are already on cholinesterase inhibitors due to memory disorders. The following article gives an overview of the anticholinergics currently prescribed in patients with symptoms of overactive bladder with special attention to the influence of pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics on the adverse events profile including possible CNS side effects.
