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

introduction and hypothesisThe International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-FLUTS) is a tool for the evaluation of lower urinary tract symptoms and their impact on the quality of life. The purpose of this research was the translation of ICIQ-FLUTS into the Urdu language and to determine its validity and reliability.

methodsTwo bilingual translators translated the ICIQ-FLUTS Questionnaire into the Urdu language. Three experts compared the Urdu ICIQ-FLUTS with the original version of ICIQ-FLUTS. Urdu version was translated back into English by two translators. The pre-final version was drafted after tracking the forward and backward translation differences. The final Urdu version was drafted after application to ten patients (pilot study). Final Urdu ICIQ-FLUTS was applied to 120 participants for validity and reliability.

resultsUrdu version was drafted after the consensus of the experts. The content validity index ranged between 0.81-0.93. The mean age of the participants was 45.2 ± 7.79 years. The test-retest reliability was analyzed through intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) 0.972 and internal consistency by Cronbach's alpha 0.986. The concurrent validity was determined by correlating the ICIQ-FLUTS with ICIQ-UI SF (0.82) and UDI-6 (0.72).

conclusionIt was concluded that the Urdu version of ICIQ-FLUTS is an assessment questionnaire for the signs and symptoms of urinary incontinence. It has good content validity, concurrent validity, and test-retest reliability.
