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

objectiveThe objective of the study was to determine the association between urinary incontinence (UI) and depressive symptoms. STUDY

designThe study was a cross-sectional study of 338 incontinent and overweight women at baseline in the Program to Reduce Incontinence by Diet and Exercise trial. Depressive symptoms were defined as a Beck Depression Inventory score of 10 or greater. UI frequency was determined by a 7-day voiding diary. Symptom bother and quality of life were determined using the Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI) and the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ). Multivariable regression was used to estimate the association between UI and depressive symptoms.

resultsWomen with depressive symptoms (n = 101) reported a higher mean number of UI episodes per week (28 vs 23; P = .005) and higher (worse) mean scores on the UDI (176 vs 162; P = .02) and IIQ (136 vs 97; P < .001) compared with women without depressive symptoms. The risk of having depressive symptoms increased with each 7-episode increase in UI per week (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 1.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.21), each 50-point increase in UDI (AOR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.01-1.60), and each 50-point increase in IIQ (AOR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.22-1.71).

conclusionUrinary incontinence frequency, symptom bother, and quality of life are independently associated with depressive symptoms in overweight and obese women.
