Non-medication coping strategies for urinary incontinence in older adults: factors associated with frequency of use.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
introduction and hypothesisThe aim of this study is to determine the frequency of the use of non-medication coping strategies for urinary incontinence in older adults.
methodsThis methodological and cross-sectional study was conducted in 320 older adults. The data of the study were collected using a personal information form and a urinary incontinence questionnaire form regarding the frequency of the use of non-medication coping strategies for urinary incontinence. Within the scope of the validity and reliability study of the questionnaire, Cronbach's alpha, factor analysis tests, KMO, Bartlett's test, and principal components analysis were used. Descriptive statistics, independent t test, ANOVA, and correlation test were also used for data. The statistical accepted significance level was p < 0.05.
resultsThe mean age of the participants in the study was 75.54 ± 9.34 years. Older adults who are illiterate, who are single, who have a chronic disease, who are at an advanced age, who are women, who describe having urinary incontinence during activities, who always experience leaking urine, whose diapers or underwear get wet, who share these issues with their relatives, and who do not consult a doctor because they are afraid of being examined were all found to have a higher frequency of use of coping strategies for urinary incontinence (p < 0.05).
conclusionsThis study recommends carrying out studies to raise awareness about urinary incontinence in older adults. In addition, this study suggests that the questionnaire applied to older adults study subjects regarding the frequency of the use of non-medication coping strategies for urinary incontinence might be used for all age groups.
