Gender differences of lower urinary tract symptoms in older Chinese Americans.
Article in Asian journal of urology, 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
Objective: To describe whether or not there are gender differences in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) prevalence and risk factors in community-dwelling older Chinese Americans. Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of a prospective cross-sectional population-based survey of Chinese Americans aged 60 years and older between January 2011 and December 2013 in English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Taishanese, or Teochew. A clinical review of systems was used to assess LUTS, which included urinary frequency, urgency, burning and/or pain, blood in urine, and urinary incontinence. Results: Of the total 3157 people queried, 42% were men and 58% were women. More men reported LUTS compared to women (32.9% Conclusion: In this large population-based study, LUTS were more prevalent in older Chinese American men than women. We also found gender-specific factors that influenced the odds of reporting LUTS; however, traditional Chinese medicine use was the only factor that was shared by both genders. Future longitudinal investigations are needed to elucidate these underlying mechanisms to provide evidence-based and culture-specific guidelines for this rapidly growing population.
