Review in Current urology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purpose of reviewThis manuscript reviews recent technological advances in ambulatory urodynamics. RECENT

findingsAmbulatory urodynamics is currently recommended by the International Continence Society as a second-line diagnostic tool in patients with nondiagnostic traditional urodynamics. Novel techniques involving telemetric monitoring are in development, which utilize catheter-free wireless systems to address several recognized shortcomings of inoffice urodynamic studies. Current research in catheter-free bladder pressure measurements involves either an intravesical, intradetrusor, or transdetrusor approach. Real-time bladder volume estimation may be performed using ultrasonography, near-infrared spectroscopy, or bladder volume conductance measurement. Ambulatory urodynamics can measure bladder function in the "real world" setting, capturing physiological bladder filling and emptying and allowing patients to reproduce the activities that may trigger their symptoms. Telemetric devices being developed represent further advances in this field and focus upon improving diagnostic capabilities, evaluating patient response to treatment, and facilitating closed-loop bladder control with neuroprosthetic integration.
