Association between the bladder wall thickness and urodynamic findings in patients with spinal cord injury.
Article in World journal of urology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07419165 (Correlation of Suprapubic Ultrasound-Measured Detrusor and Bladder Wall Thickness With Urodynamic Parameters in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 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
purposeTo investigate whether ultrasonographic bladder wall thickness (BWT) correlates with urodynamic parameters in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).
methodsTwo hundred and seventy-two patients with SCI were enrolled in the study. All of the patients underwent bladder ultrasonography and urodynamic study. The anterior bladder wall was measured and compared to urodynamic data.
resultsThe mean age of the patients was 37.4 years. The mean BWT was 3.9 mm. BWT was significantly higher in the patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity associated with detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (NDO/DSD) compared to those without sphincter dyssynergia (4.2 vs. 3.6 mm, respectively, p < 0.001) and in those with compliance <20 ml/cm H2O. Nevertheless, ROC curve analysis [ROC = 0.624, 95 % CI (0.530, 0.718), p = 0.011] showed that no meaningful BWT measurement cutoff could be made to predict an elevated detrusor pressure in the storage phase.
conclusionsIncreased BWT was present in patients with low bladder compliance and NDO/DSD. No BWT cutoff value to predict an elevated detrusor pressure was found. Therefore, the measurement of BWT has no clinical role in patients with SCI and cannot replace urodynamic evaluation.
