Selecting a medical therapy for overactive bladder.
Article in Reviews in urology, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Immediate-release oxybutynin was the gold standard for pharmacologic treatment of overactive bladder for nearly 30 years. Intolerable systemic side effects, in particular dry mouth, limited its clinical utility, resulting in poor patient compliance with dosing regimens. Multiple studies have demonstrated the vastly superior tolerability of tolterodine, extended-release tolterodine, and extended-release oxybutynin over that of immediate-release oxybutynin at equivalent doses, and in the case of extended-release oxybutynin even to twice the dose of the original immediate-release form. With different drug delivery systems and, perhaps, with better bladder selectivity, these new oral agents have favorable side effect profiles, which translate into higher patient compliance and fewer treatment withdrawals or dosage reductions.
