Prevalence and Spatial Distribution Characteristics of Female Stress Urinary Incontinence in Mainland China.
Article in European urology open science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Background and objective: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women is a common condition that affects middle-aged and elderly women. Currently, there are still many limitations in the epidemiological research on SUI. This study aims to address the gap in the prevalence of female SUI in mainland China and provide theoretical support for the prevention and treatment of SUI. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted on the prevalence of female SUI in mainland China, systematically searching Chinese and English databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, and Weipu Database as of April 1, 2024. Detailed criteria for screening and exclusion were established. The prevalence of SUI in the selected studies was synthesized using Stata MP (version 15) software, and a multisubgroup analysis, a sensitivity analysis, and publication bias detection of the prevalence of SUI were also performed using the software. Additionally, ArcGIS software (version 10.8) and Geoda software (version 1.2) were utilized to explore the geographical distribution characteristics of the prevalence of female SUI in mainland China. Key findings and limitations: A total of 688 articles were screened, and finally 85 articles were included. The overall rate of female SUI in mainland China was 24.5% (95% confidence interval: 22.5-26.5%). The heterogeneity of the study is statistically significant (I Conclusions and clinical implications: The high incidence rate of female SUI in mainland China and the regional differences observed indicate the need for further rigorous epidemiological investigation in the future. Patient summary: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is common among middle-aged and elderly women. The high prevalence of SUI in mainland China and the differences across regions emphasize the need for conducting more robust epidemiological studies in the future.
