The prevalence of detrusor overactivity amongst patients with symptoms of overactive bladder: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04693897 (To Explore the Effect of beta3-adrenoceptor Agonist on Patients With Overactive Bladder and Develop Its Urinary Biomarker), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 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.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisOveractive bladder (OAB) is a symptom-based condition consisting of urgency, with or without incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia. There are many potential causes of OAB, yet many patients are prescribed anticholinergic medications empirically. This study aimed to determine what proportion of patients presenting for urogynecologic assessment with symptoms of OAB had urodynamic detrusor overactivity (DO).
methodsRetrospective chart review was performed for 220 consecutive patient referrals. Demographic data, physical exam information, and urodynamic results were collected. The t test and Fisher's exact test were used for statistical analyses.
resultsThe prevalence of DO was 11.8 % in this population. Urogenital atrophy and incomplete emptying were more common. Patients with DO were older and more often menopausal than those without DO. Significant prolapse was a common finding amongst patients with OAB symptoms.
conclusionsPatients with symptoms of OAB should undergo pelvic examination and assessment of post-void residuals before being initiated on anticholinergic medication.
