The relationship between sleep apnea and overactive bladder.
Review in Current urology reports, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Approximately 4% to 5% of middle-aged men are affected by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome, which is known to cause urologic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and an increased risk of stroke. The correlation between OSA, erectile dysfunction, and nocturia is well known; a recent study demonstrated the association between overactive bladder and urgency incontinence. This article discusses the current literature and therapeutic options, as well as our own experiences and consequences for affected patients.
