Paediatric painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis: diagnosis and treatment.
Review in Drugs, 2009. 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
To describe the pathophysiology, diagnosis and controversies surrounding the diagnosis and pharmacological treatments of painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis (PBS/IC) in children, we reviewed adult and paediatric literature pertaining to PBS/IC. Paediatric PBS/IC presents similarly to adult PBS/IC. The diagnosis is made by exclusion. Paediatric PBS/IC patients complain most commonly of urinary frequency, and abdominal pain occurs in up to 88% of affected children. Enuresis may also be a presenting complaint. Urinalysis and urine cultures are unremarkable. Management of paediatric PBS/IC is similar to that of adult PBS/IC, and non-surgical management includes dietary, lifestyle and pharmacological therapy. Pharmacological options include pentosan polysulfate, amitriptyline, hydroxyzine, cimetidine or intravesical therapies (dimethyl sulfoxide or 'therapeutic solution').
