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.

Abstract

backgroundObesity has been associated with daytime urinary incontinence (UI), likely due to increased intra-abdominal pressure.

objectivesTo assess incontinence symptoms in severely obese adolescents before and 3 years after bariatric surgery.

settingTertiary care pediatric hospitals in the United States.

methodsThe Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery is a prospective, multicenter study designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of bariatric surgery in adolescents. Patients<19 years of age undergoing bariatric surgery at 5 centers between 2007 and 2012 were enrolled. Trained study staff collected baseline and postoperative anthropometric and clinical data. Presence and severity of UI were determined by standardized interview.

resultsA total of 242 patients (76% female) were evaluated at baseline. The mean age was 17.1 years at baseline, and 72% were of white race. The preoperative median body mass index was 50.5 kg/m

conclusionsIn adolescents undergoing bariatric surgery, UI was more common in females than in males. Incontinence status significantly improved by 6 months and was durable to 3 years after surgery, suggesting that bariatric surgery favorably affects anatomic or physiologic mechanisms of bladder control in both males and females.
