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

backgroundThe aim of urodynamic testing is to obtain objective information regarding urinary bladder storage and voiding function. Basic investigations provide information of the underlying incontinence form. Depending on the individual situation and findings, further urodynamic investigations are helpful or indicated. Prior to conservative therapy, a routine urodynamic investigation is not indicated.

objectivesDue to limited evidence of preoperative urodynamic investigations on postoperative results, the urodynamic results may be helpful when considering various treatment options.

resultsUrodynamic investigations should be performed preoperatively, especially in case of overactive bladder symptoms, prior incontinence surgery, or disordered bladder emptying. The assessment of urethral function should be considered in the urodynamic investigation of stress urinary incontinence. In patients with pelvic prolapse, urodynamic investigations should be performed during prolapse reposition.
