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
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the impact of add-on pelvic floor exercises on a weight management rehabilitation program. Patients and methods: This proof of principle study was conducted between July 2019 and December 2019. Ninety-three adult female inpatients with obesity and diagnosis of urinary incontinence (UI) were assessed for inclusion, and the suitable patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. Both groups underwent a weight management rehabilitation program, while the experimental group also performed pelvic floor exercises. The primary outcome was UI severity, assessed by the 1-h pad test. Secondary outcomes were urinary symptoms, assessed by the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), and Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire (I-QOL). Results: Sixty female inpatients were randomly assigned to the experimental group [n=30; median age: 64.50 (51.25 to 70.50) years] or the control group [n=30; median age: 67.50 (58.50 to 74.75) years]. The experimental group showed a statistically significant reduction in UI severity [pad test: 2.08 (1.21 to 8.85) g Conclusion: Including pelvic floor exercises might provide additional benefits compared to standard rehabilitation in reducing UI symptoms in obese women.
