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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a new Web-based intermittent catheter self-management intervention.

designWe tested the acceptability and usability of intervention components, which included multiple Web-based materials (an online urinary diary adapted for mobile phone use and an educational booklet), 3 phone calls with a nurse, and a peer-led discussion forum. SUBJECTS AND

settingThirty adults with spinal cord injury using intermittent catheterization for bladder drainage were enrolled; 26 participants received the nurses' phone-based consultations.

methodsPreliminary effectiveness of new self-efficacy and self-management scales were evaluated using baseline and 3-month online surveys. Participants' perceived value of the intervention components, self-management changes, and suggestions were assessed with data from the 3-month surveys, followed by brief tape-recorded interviews.

resultsSeveral catheter practices improved somewhat over 3 months. The frequency of catheterizations every 4 to 6 hours increased from 71% to 77%. Self-management of neurogenic bladder dysfunction increased significantly (P = .032); participant comments indicated that fluid intake was the biggest change. Catheter-related self-efficacy and quality-of-life scores increased but not significantly. The frequency of urinary tract infection and pain did not change significantly. For feasibility, intervention components, with the exception of the forum, were rated highly by the majority of participants for usefulness, satisfaction (desired information), and Web-based usability.

conclusionFurther testing of this intervention is recommended in a multisite randomized clinical trial.
