Comparison of antimuscarinic drugs to beta adrenergic agonists in overactive bladder: A literary review.
Review in Current urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to carry an extended literature review to compare antimuscarnics with beta adrenergic agonists (mirabegron) in treatment of overactive bladder. MATERIALS AND
methodsA literature review was carried out, using key words in different databases including MEDLINE, PUBMED, and EMBASE. All relevant published articles during last 5 years with full texts available were included in this review for critical analysis and evaluation. In total, there were 20 studies including 7 systemic reviews, 6 retrospective cohort, 3 prospective cohort, 2 randomized controlled trials, and 2 cross sectional studies.
resultsAfter critical evaluation the results were considered under parameters of efficacy, adverse effects, adherence and persistence, tolerability, cost-effectiveness. In 9 studies efficacy was evaluated, 5 studies dealt with adverse effects, same number evaluated adherence and persistence. Cost effectiveness was compared in 3 and same number of studies also compared tolerability.
conclusionsTo conclude, we found mirabegron is as efficacious as any other antimuscarnics, has better tolerability (including elderly), has better adverse effect profile, is cost effective, has better persistence and adherence rates at 12 months.
