Association of urinary incontinence with depression among men: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
objectiveDepression and urinary incontinence (UI) are both troubling symptoms that severely impact quality of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between UI (including UI types and severity) and depression among men. POPULATION AND
methodsThe analyzed data was collected from the 2005-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data. A total of 16,694 male participants aged ≥ 20 years with complete information about depression and UI were included in this study. Logistic regression was performed to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) to determine the association between depression and UI by adjusting for relevant covariables.
resultsThe prevalence of depression was 10.91% among participants with UI. Urge UI was the main type of UI and accounts for 50.53% of all UI types. The adjusted ORs for the association between depression and UI were 2.69 (95%CI, 2.20-3.28). Compared with slight UI, the adjusted ORs were 2.28 (95% CI, 1.61-3.23) for moderate UI, 2.98 (95% CI, 1.54-5.74) for severe UI, and 3.85 (95% CI, 1.83-8.12) for very severe UI. Compared with no UI, the adjusted ORs were 4.46 (95% CI, 3.16-6.29) for mixed UI, 3.15 (95% CI, 2.06-4.82) for stress UI, and 2.43 (95% CI, 1.89-3.12) for urge UI. The subgroup analyses also showed similar correlation about depression and UI.
conclusionAmong men, depression was positively associated with UI status, severity and types. For clinicians, it's necessary to screen depression in patients with UI.
