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

The presence of overactive bladder symptoms, urodynamic detrusor overactivity, and urge incontinence can complicate the diagnosis and management of stress urinary incontinence in women. The exact pathophysiology of mixed incontinence is not well characterized; in some patients, the stress and urge etiology may be pathologically linked. The role of urodynamics in evaluating patients with mixed incontinence remains controversial. Conservative therapies, such as bladder training, pelvic floor exercise, biofeedback, and electrical stimulation, offer moderate success in women with mixed incontinence. Surgery (colposuspension, bladder neck pubovaginal slings, and midurethral slings) offers excellent subjective and objective cure rates in patients with mixed incontinence. Preoperative detrusor overactivity is cured consistently 50%of the time with colposuspension and slings. Overall, the presence of preoperative detrusor overactivity does not appear to significantly worsen the outcome of conservative and surgical treatments for stress urinary incontinence in women.
