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

purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate changes in urinary incontinence (UI) before and after surgery for obesity in female patients and to identify factors related to the remission of symptoms. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a prospective cohort study with female patients over 18 years old who underwent surgery for obesity and weight-related diseases between June 2016 and September 2017. Urinary symptoms and quality of life related to UI were assessed based on a structured interview and the results of the validated questionnaires.

resultsTwo hundred twenty-one patients were assessed pre-operatively, and 118 (53.3%) reported UI. Eighty-eight patients (74.6%) completed the pre- and postoperative questionnaires. After 6 to 12 months, patients were revaluated, and 50 (56.8%) were considered to be in remission of urinary symptoms. Women who had only a cesarean birth had a 117% increase in the probability of achieving remission of UI compared with women who had both vaginal and cesarean deliveries, and patients with an additional point in the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) score at the beginning had a 4% lower probability of having remission of symptoms.

conclusionsImprovement in UI may be an important outcome of surgery for obesity and weight-related diseases. In this study, previous cesarean section was only associated with the highest rate of remission of symptoms, and patients with higher scores in the ICIQ-UI-SF had a lower probability of remission.
