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

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome characterized by symptoms of urgency with or without incontinence, frequency, and nocturia. Pathophysiology of OAB is incompletely characterized. Therefore, there is great variability surrounding OAB evaluation. In some cases, urodynamics is normal and the challenge is to propose the least invasive treatment. Behavioral therapies have been used for decades as they are conservative, inexpensive, and do not induce side effect. Our purpose was to describe which usual techniques of pelvic floor rehabilitation in association with behavioral and cognitive therapy could be proposed to manage OAB syndrome in the absence of urodynamic diagnosis and when no targeting drug treatment could be proposed.
