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

objectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency and course of post-stroke lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) from early term up to a period of six months and to investigate the relation of LUTD with functional and mental status and quality of life (QoL) in stroke patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis prospective study included a total of 70 stroke patients (44 males, 26 females; mean age 62.7±7.0 years; range, 46 to 79 years) from five different centers across Turkey between June 2015 and January 2017. The patients were questioned using the Danish Prostatic Symptom Score (DAN-PSS) to evaluate LUTD and evaluated using the Modified Barthel Index (MBI), Incontinence QoL Questionnaire (I-QOL), and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at one, three, and six months.

resultsAt least one symptom of LUTD was observed in 64 (91.4%), 58 (82.9%), and 56 (80%) of the patients according to the DAN-PSS at one, three, and six months, respectively. A statistically significant improvement was found in the DAN-PSS, MBI, MMSE, I-QOL total scores, avoidance and psychosocial subgroup scores at six months compared to the first month scores (p<0.05). There was a significant negative correlation between the DAN-PSS symptom score at one month and the MBI, MMSE, and QoL scores at six months. The DAN-PSS bother and total scores were found to be significantly and negatively correlated only with the subscales of the QoL questionnaire.

conclusionBased on our study results, LUTD was very common and the prevalence of LUTD findings decreased constantly during six-month follow-up, showing an association with a poor cognitive and functional status and QoL in stroke patients with LUTD.
