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

Detrusor underactivity (DU) and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) are both common troublesome causes of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and often impact on quality of life simultaneously in men. This article aims to focus on DU with BOO in male patients.

methodsOriginal articles concerning DU with BOO were identified through literature research from PubMed and EMBASE database. We selected 38 articles in our review, including those concerning pathophysiology, evaluation, treatment and predictors for a successful BOO surgery for DU.

resultsDU from BOO can result from several pathophysiological mechanisms. Although urodynamic study (UDS) is considered as a precise method to diagnose DU and BOO, there are some previous studies which proposed a non-invasive method to identify DU related to BOO. The treatment goal of DU is restoring bladder contractility using medication or surgery. Releasing outlet obstruction and resistance is the main strategy to restore bladder contractility when medication to directly increase bladder contractility has had limited efficacy.

conclusionsDU from BOO is poorly understood and is largely under-researched. The etiology and pathophysiology still need to be evaluated. Effective and safe medication to restore bladder contractility is also lacking. It remains valuable to perform further research to reveal the unknown aspects of DU.
