Anticholinergic drugs, bladder retraining and their combination for urge urinary incontinence: a pilot randomised trial.
Trial report 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 7 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
Bladder retraining and anticholinergic drugs in women with urge urinary incontinence need to be compared. Women with urge urinary incontinence were recruited by advertisements, from primary care and from a urogynaecology clinic. Women were randomised using a web page to bladder retraining, anticholinergic drugs or both and followed up at 3 and 12 months. No blinding was attempted. The primary outcomes were the trial process and the Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-q) quality-of-life measure. Recruitment was much slower than anticipated. There were no differences in the OAB-q at 12 months (87.9 SD 11.6 bladder retraining, 81.6 SD 19.3 drug therapy and 88.9 SD 9.9 combination) but dry mouth was more common in those taking drugs. It is feasible to run a pragmatic randomised trial with 12-month follow-up for women with urinary urge incontinence. This will require about 500 participants per arm.
