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

aimThis study evaluated the long-term effectiveness of transurethral incision of the bladder neck (TUI-BN) with or without an additional procedure for female voiding dysfunction.

methodsWomen with voiding difficulty who underwent TUI-BN in the last 12 years were included. All patients underwent a videourodynamics study (VUDS) at baseline and after TUI-BN. A successful outcome was defined as having a voiding efficiency (VE) increase by ≥50% after treatment. Patients with insufficient improvement were chosen for repeated TUI-BN, urethral onabotulinumtoxinA injection, or transurethral external sphincter incision (TUI-ES). The current voiding status, surgical complications, and additional surgeries were evaluated.

resultsA total of 102 women with VUDS evidence of a narrow bladder neck during voiding were enrolled. The long-term success rate of the first TUI-BN was 29.4% (30/102) and increased to 66.7% (34/51) after combining TUI-BN and an additional procedure. The overall long-term success rates were 74.6% in women with detrusor underactivity (DU), 52.0% in detrusor overactivity and low contractility, 50.0% in bladder neck obstruction, 20.0% in hypersensitive bladder, and 75% in stable bladder (

conclusionsTUI-BN alone or in combination with an additional procedure was safe, effective, and durable in patients with DU to resume spontaneous voiding.
