Urinary and Double Incontinence in Cognitively Impaired Patients: Impacts on Those Affected and Their Professional Caregivers.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Urinary or double incontinence in frail elderly people is common and leads to a reduction in quality of life and an increased burden on the patients' caregivers. Up to now, no special instrument has been available to assess the impact of incontinence on cognitively impaired patients and their professional caregivers. Thus, the outcomes of incontinence-specific medical and nursing interventions for cognitively impaired individuals are not measurable. Our aim was to investigate the impacts of urinary and double incontinence on both the affected patients and their caregivers using the newly developed "International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Cognitively Impaired Elderly" (ICIQ-Cog) tool. The severity of incontinence was measured by incontinence episodes per night/per 24 h, the type of incontinence, the type of incontinence devices used, and the proportion of incontinence care out of total care; all these measures were correlated to the ICIQ-Cog. Incontinence episodes per night and the proportion of incontinence care out of total care showed significant correlations with the patient- and caregiver-related ICIQ-Cog scores. Both items have negative effects on patient quality of life and caregiver burden. Improving nocturnal incontinence and reducing the need for incontinence care overall can decrease the incontinence-specific bother of affected patients and their professional caregivers. The ICIQ-Cog can be used to verify the impacts of medical and nursing interventions.
