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

An impaired ability to evacuate the urinary bladder is commonly seen in both men and women with aging. Usually, patients present with a range of storage, voiding, and post-micturition urinary symptoms. It may eventually lead to urinary retention. These symptoms may have a considerable effect on the patient's quality of life. Despite its common prevalence with advancing age, the etiopathogenesis of the underactive urinary bladder is incompletely understood. There are no widely agreed diagnostic criteria. The urodynamic study (UDS), an invasive investigation is the only accepted modality to diagnose underactive detrusor. There is a lack of effective treatments to improve bladder emptying. The goals of treatment are to improve symptoms and reduce the risk for the complications of impaired bladder emptying. We report a case of a 73 year male who came to us with a history of urinary symptoms and a distended abdomen.
