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

To observe the efficacy and safety of solifenacin and/or mirabegron as a medical expulsive therapy (MET) in patients with double-J stent-related overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. A total of 219 patients with double-J stent-related OAB symptoms were prospectively randomized into two groups. One-hundred and nine cases in the combination group accepted mirabegron and solifenacin therapy and 110 cases as control only accepted solifenacin therapy. The lower urinary tract symptoms and overactive bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) health-related quality of life (HRQol) and symptom bother score between two groups were compared at the 1st, 2nd and 4th week ends. All of 219 patients were randomly assigned to two groups, of which 109 patients were included in the combination group and 110 in the solifenacin group. The incidences of LUTS, including urgency, frequent urination, and incontinence episodes, in the 2nd week (44.9% vs. 64.5%, P = 0.028; 48.6% vs. 62.7%, P = 0.036; and 40.4% vs. 56.4%, P = 0.018) and the 4th week (14.7% vs. 30.9%, P = 0.004; 16.5% vs. 33.6%, P = 0.003; and 11.9% vs. 26.4%, P = 0.007) after combination treatment were significantly lower than those in the solifenacin group. The incidence of drug-related adverse events in the solifenacin group was higher than that in the combination group, but there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). In terms of secondary variables, the OAB-q HRQol score in the combination group was statistically superior in comparison with that in the solifenacin group between the second and fourth week (77.9 vs. 76.4, P = 0.020; and 87.9 vs. 85.6, P = 0.001). The OAB-q symptom bother score was higher in the solifenacin group than in the combination group (37.6 vs. 36.4, P = 0.016; and 26.2 vs. 24.8, P = 0.003). Combination therapy of solifenacin and mirabegron demonstrated significant improvements over solifenacin monotherapy in reducing OAB symptoms associated with double-J stents, and providing a higher quality of life without increasing bothersome adverse effects.
