Dysfunctional Voiders-Medication Versus Urotherapy?
Review in Current urology reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05613153 (Peppermint Oil as an Alternative Treatment for Children With Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewDysfunctional voiding is defined as "habitual contraction of the urethral sphincter during voiding." Children with dysfunctional voiding remain a challenge, and the approach to and management of LUT dysfunction varies widely among programs and providers with the role of pharmacotherapy being ill defined. RECENT
findingsAnimated biofeedback is the current treatment modality of choice in children who are not responsive to standard urotherapy. Comprehensive biofeedback programs incorporate continued elimination education, voiding diaries, and home exercises with high success rates. Recent studies suggest botulinum toxin A results in persistent satisfactory results in select children with refractory dysfunctional voiding. Conservative measures including an aggressive bowel regimen and timed voiding are the mainstays of treatment, and motivated children with persistent symptoms often respond favorably to escalating urotherapy with biofeedback. Pharmacotherapy plays an ancillary role in the management of dysfunctional voiding.
