Modeling the influence of acute changes in bladder elasticity on pressure and wall tension during filling.
Article in Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tension-sensitive nerves in the bladder wall are responsible for providing bladder sensation. Bladder wall tension, and therefore nerve output, is a function of bladder pressure, volume, geometry and material properties. The elastic modulus of the bladder is acutely adjustable, and this material property is responsible for adjustable preload tension exhibited in human and rabbit detrusor muscle strips and dynamic elasticity revealed during comparative-fill urodynamics in humans. A finite deformation model of the bladder was previously used to predict filling pressure and wall tension using uniaxial tension test data and the results showed that wall tension can increase significantly during filling with relatively little pressure change. In the present study, published uniaxial rabbit detrusor data were used to quantify regulated changes in the elastic modulus, and the finite deformation model was expanded to illustrate the potential effects of elasticity changes on pressure and wall tension during filling. The model demonstrates a shift between relatively flat pressure-volume filling curves, which is consistent with a recent human urodynamics study, and also predicts that dynamic elasticity would produce significant changes in wall tension during filling. The model results support the conclusion that acute regulation of bladder elasticity could contribute to significant changes in wall tension for a given volume that could lead to urgency, and that a single urodynamic fill may be insufficient to characterize bladder biomechanics. The model illustrates the potential value of quantifying wall tension in addition to pressure during urodynamics.
