Review in International urogynecology journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.

Abstract

introduction and hypothesisUrinary incontinence (UI)-defined as a complaint of involuntary loss of urine-is common in women, with major public health, financial, and quality of life (QoL) implications. Despite the high toll of UI and the availability of effective conservative treatments, many women with UI do not seek care. Those who do often continue to experience symptoms. Improving UI treatment may require a comprehensive approach to urology research, including a broad set of potentially influential factors beyond biologic.

methodsTo explore the effects of nonbiologic factors (NBF) on UI management and treatment response, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases convened a workshop for clinical and psychosocial researchers. Participants proposed a UI treatment pathway: recognizing the problem, willingness to seek treatment, access to care, receiving quality treatment, engaging in self-management, and adhering to chosen treatments; discussed potential NBFs that may affect the pathway; and identified areas for future research. After the meeting, a rapid literature review was conducted to assess the current state of research on NBFs in women with UI.

resultsParticipants identified several patient-level NBFs that may influence the UI management pathway, including QoL and perceived bother; stigma, shame, and embarrassment; knowledge and perceptions; social determinants of health; cultural and language characteristics; personal characteristics and skills; and physical abilities. Additionally, participants acknowledged that provider- and system-level factors also play a role and likely interact with patient-level factors.

conclusionsNBFs that potentially affect the UI management pathway are not well understood, and a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach to research is needed to understand and appropriately support effective UI treatment.
