The overactive bladder.
Article in Therapeutic advances in urology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Urinary urgency and the associated symptoms which comprise overactive bladder are prevalent amongst the general population and adversely affect quality of life. Disease management consists of a sequential series of options starting with behavioural and lifestyle techniques, pharmacological management (antimuscarinics) and, in severe cases, surgical treatment (urinary diversion, neuromodulation, augmentation cystoplasty and detrusor myectomy). There is increasing recognition of pathophysiological mechanisms in the urothelium, interstitial cells and afferent neurons allowing the importance of peripheral integrative interaction to be identified. The hierarchy of the central nervous system control adds additional complexity to understanding the oflower urinary tract function. Some newer methods of treatment include Botulinum toxin A intramural injections, oral beta-3 adrenergic agonists and rho-kinase inhibitors. The lack of a disease generating hypothesis, the lack of animal models for disease and the subjective nature of the central symptom (urgency) still pose considerable theoretical and scientific hurdles that need to be overcome in the treatment of this condition.
