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

introduction and hypothesisThe aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of intravesical oxybutynin on the bladder wall of rabbits with detrusor overactivity and partial bladder outlet obstruction (PBOO).

methodsForty-five North Folk male rabbits were randomly distributed into GI, used as control (n = 15), GII-PBOO (n = 14), and GIII-PBOO + intravesical oxybutynin (n = 15). Connective tissue and elastic fibers were quantified as volumetric density on picrosirius red and Weigert's Fuchsin-Resorcin-stained sections, respectively.

resultsIn T2, bladder weight was significantly higher in animals in GII and GIII. Smooth muscle bundle diameter was increased by 42% in GII compared with GI (p < 0.02).Elastic fibers were significantly higher in GII and GIII as compared with control group. Collagen concentration in GIII and GII was significantly lower than G1 (p < 0.025).

conclusionIntravesical oxybutynin protected against structural and functional detrusor modifications of the partially obstructed bladder.
