Two Cases of Acute Urinary Retention Associated With Acute Sarcopenia in Older Women.

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
Acute urinary retention during hospitalization is a poor prognostic predictor. Therefore, prevention of the same is important. Herein, we describe two cases of acute urinary retention in older women admitted to the hospital for acute illness, with severe sarcopenia being the only predisposing cause. Both women developed urinary problems shortly after admission. In both, acute urinary retention was preceded by an in-hospital period of poor nutritional intake and a lack of progress in rehabilitation. There was no evidence of genitourinary disorder, neurological disease, drug-induced dysuria, bone fracture, or pain. Both patients presented with severe sarcopenia and severe frailty.Although the loss of mass in the voiding muscles is difficult to detect, the possibility of dysuria as one of the complications of acute and severe sarcopenia was indicated in our patients. Of note, however, is that many patients with severe sarcopenia do not develop dysuria. Therefore, accumulating evidence on the possible association between severe sarcopenia and dysuria is needed to inform prevention.
