Healthcare resource use and cost burden of urinary incontinence to United States payers.
Article in Neurourology and urodynamics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo assess healthcare resource utilization and costs for female patients diagnosed with stress or mixed urinary incontinence (SUI/MUI) compared to a matched cohort of patients without SUI/MUI.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective matched cohort study of women using the IBM MarketScan research database. Women diagnosed with SUI/MUI between July 1, 2014 and June 30, 2016 were identified using International Classification of Diseases 9 and 10 codes for SUI or MUI with the date of first diagnosis as the index date from which 2-year postindex healthcare resource use and direct cost data were derived from claims, examined, and compared 1:1 with patients without a SUI/MUI diagnosis, matched by age and Charlson's Comorbidity Index.
resultsA total of 68 636 women with SUI/MUI were matched 1:1 with controls. In the 2-year postindex date, a significantly higher proportion of SUI/MUI patients had ≥1 inpatient visit and ≥1 outpatient visit compared to the control group (inpatient: 18.89% vs. 12.10%, p < 0.0001; outpatient: 88.44% vs. 73.23%, p < 0.0001). Mean primary care visits were significantly higher in SUI/MUI patients compared to controls (7.33 vs. 5.53; p < 0.0001) as were specialist visits (1.2 vs. 0.08; p < 0.0001). Mean all-cause outpatient costs were higher in SUI/MUI patients compared to controls ($7032.10 vs. $3348.50; p < 0.0001), as were inpatient costs ($3990.70 vs. $2313.70; p < 0.0001).
conclusionWomen with SUI/MUI consume significantly higher medical resources and incur higher costs to payers, compared to women without SUI/MUI. While reasons for this are not fully understood, improved and standardized treatment for women with SUI/MUI may positively affect cost and outcomes.
