Diagnostic value of voiding scores of the "International prostate symptom score" and the "Bristol female lower urinary system symptoms-short form" questionnaires in women with voiding dysfunction.

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
Introduction: We aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of International Prostate Symptom Score voiding symptom score (IPSS-VS) and Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms-short form voiding score (BFLUTS-VS) in female patients with urodynamically diagnosed voiding dysfunction. Methods: The medical records of female patients who underwent urodynamic examination between May 2007 and November 2021 for lower urinary tract complaints were retrospectively evaluated. A total of 1858 female patients were included in the study. Patients investigated between 2007 and 2014 were asked to fill the IPSS, and patients investigated after 2015 were asked to fill the BFLUTS-SF. Results: The mean age of the patients was 49.06 ± 0.33 in the IPSS group and 50.02 ± 0.47 in the BFLUTS group. On the pressure flow study, voiding dysfunction was found in 14.8% ( Conclusion: The diagnostic performance of both the questionnaires was found to be low for diagnosing voiding dysfunction in female patients according to our data. Therefore, the assessment of the voiding phase in women should not solely rely on the current questionnaires. However, further studies using questionnaires including all voiding symptoms are required.
