Why do stress and urge incontinence co-occur much more often than expected?
Review in International urogynecology journal and pelvic floor dysfunction, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Assuming stress and urge urinary incontinence (UI) are independent, mixed UI prevalence is 17 times higher than expected. We consider three explanatory models. We summarize evidence from previous studies on whether common Risk Factors, Liability (i.e., one UI subtype increases risk of the other), or Severity model (i.e., mixed UI represents an advanced and more persistent stage of a progressive disorder) explains the unexpectedly high prevalence of mixed UI. We found little support to indicate that the excess prevalence of mixed UI is explained by common risk factors. In contrast, evidence does indicate that onset of one UI subtype increases risk of onset of the other subtype. Finally, although the Severity model is intuitively attractive, there is little epidemiologic evidence to support it. Longitudinal studies are needed to determine which model offers a dominant explanation for the high prevalence of mixed UI.
