[Imaging for urinary incontinence].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundUltrasonography and functional cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are noninvasive and x-ray free tools, which are currently widely used in clinical diagnostics and scientific research of male and female urinary incontinence. The increasing use and improving techniques of modern imaging tools are closely linked to rapid development of minimally invasive surgery in patients with urinary incontinence and insights gained in continence mechanisms.
methodsWhereas ultrasonography is a cost-efficient and readily available diagnostic tool for a routine use, the more expensive functional MRI, as a tool with more precise visualization of functional interactions and spatial representation of anatomical structures of the pelvic floor, is suitable for complex diagnostic purposes and scientific research. Both tools are already well established for evaluations of the female pelvic floor. For evaluation of the male pelvic floor, and in particular postprostatectomy incontinence, perineal ultrasonography and functional cine MRI are becoming increasingly evident.
conclusionFurther development of both imaging tools will contribute to new insights into the continence mechanism and improve the techniques of radical prostatectomy and minimally invasive surgery of male and female urinary incontinence in the future.
