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

aimsMounting evidence indicates that a variety of factors released from the urothelium or suburothelium can modulate smooth muscle activity. Although the relationship between the mucosa and smooth muscle has been investigated, little is known about the pathophysiologic changes in detrusor-mucosa interactions in neurogenic bladders. The goal of the study was to determine the impact of the mucosa on evoked responses in spinal cord injured (SCI) bladders.

methodsUrinary bladders were obtained from 6wk SCI rats or age-matched uninjured controls. Ex vivo isometric tension studies were performed and muscarinic receptor expression was measured in bladder tissue with and without mucosa.

resultsThe magnitude and area of nerve evoked responses in SCI tissue with mucosa was higher than without mucosa. The duration and decay time of nerve-evoked responses were longer in SCI than control tissue irrespective of the mucosa. The level of the muscarinic M

conclusionsDetrusor-mucosa interactions are substantially altered in the neurogenic bladder. After spinal cord injury, an excitatory modulation of smooth muscle contraction by the mucosa emerges, and could be targeted via intravesical treatment in the context of neurogenic bladder dysfunction.
