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

backgroundIdentifying comorbidities is a critical first step to building clinical phenotypes to improve assessment, management, and outcomes.

objectives1) Identify relevant comorbidities of community-dwelling older adults with urinary incontinence, 2) provide insights about relationships between conditions.

methodsPubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Embase were searched. Eligible studies had quantitative designs that analyzed urinary incontinence as the exposure or outcome variable. Critical appraisal was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists.

resultsTen studies were included. Most studies had methodological weaknesses in the measurement of conditions. Comorbidities affecting the neurologic, cardiovascular, psychologic, respiratory, endocrine, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal systems were found to be associated with urinary incontinence.

conclusionExisting literature suggests that comorbidities and urinary incontinence are interrelated. Further research is needed to examine symptoms, shared mechanisms, and directionality of relationships to generate clinical phenotypes, evidence-based holistic care guidelines, and improve outcomes.
