The Response of the Urinary Microbiome to Botox.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04479709 (The Urinary Microbiome Before and After Treatment With Intradetrusor Onabotulinum Toxin A Injection for Overactive Bladder), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisOur objective was to evaluate if botox alters the urinary microbiome of patients with overactive bladder and whether this alteration is predictive of treatment response.
methodsThis multicenter prospective cohort study included 18-89-year-old patients undergoing treatment for overactive bladder with 100 units of botox. Urine samples were collected by straight catheterization on the day of the procedure (S1) and again 4 weeks later (S2). Participants completed the Patient Global Impression of Improvement form at their second visit for dichotomization into responders and nonresponders. The microbiome was sequenced using 16s rRNA sequencing. Wilcoxon signed rank and Wilcoxon rank sum were used to compare the microbiome, whereas chi-square, Wilcoxon rank sum, and the independent t-test were utilized for clinical data.
resultsSixty-eight participants were included in the analysis. The mean relative abundance and prevalence of Beauveria bassiana, Xerocomus chrysenteron, Crinipellis zonata, and Micrococcus luteus were all found to increase between S1 and S2 in responders; whereas in nonresponders the mean relative abundance and prevalence of Pseudomonas fragi were found to decrease. The MRA and prevalence of Weissella cibaria, Acinetobacter johnsonii, and Acinetobacter schindleri were found to be greater in responders than nonresponders at the time of S1. Significant UM differences in the S1 of patients who did (n = 5) and did not go on to develop a post-treatment UTI were noted.
conclusionsLongitudinal urobiome differences may exist between patients who do and do not respond to botox.
