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.
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
Idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB) is defined as a symptom complex characterized by urinary urgency with or without urinary incontinence, nycturia and increased frequency of micturition without the presence of an infection or other pathological conditions, especially a neurological disease. It is a diagnosis by exclusion. If conservative treatment with behavioral therapy and pelvic floor muscle training alone is not successful, pharmaceutical treatment is recommended according to the OAB staged treatment. For treatment refractory OAB, intravesical injection of onabotulinum toxin A is recommended according to the current guidelines (recommendation level A). The approved dose is 100 U botulinum toxin and is transurethrally injected into the detrusor muscle. The treatment effect lasts on average for 6-9 months and injections can be repeated without limitations. Due to the low rate of complications, the good success rate and the low invasiveness, botulinum toxin offers a good treatment option for treatment refractory OAB.
