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

Botulinum toxins were primary suggested for the neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) treatment about thirty years ago. The application of BTX-A in LUTD have just developed and the approval of BTX-A injection confirmed in for patients with both overactive bladders (OAB) and neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO). Actually the BTX-A medication in interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is not licensed, but there is under consideration. Despite BTX-A is recommended to treat patients with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (ICBPS) under different occasions, its efficacy and safety in the cure of (IC/BPS) is under consideration. One difficulty is related to the toxin delivering systems. It is shown that there is no difference in BTX-A injection to body or trigone but there is a need on further large-scale studies over this subject. Moreover, Hydro distention can boost the therapeutic effect of BTX-A for IC/BPS patients. Additional studies should consider the safety and efficacy of BTX-A injection in the treatment of BTX-A.
