Characteristics of Geriatric Rehabilitation Inpatients with Nocturia: RESORT.

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
introductionNocturnal lower urinary tract symptoms are common in geriatric rehabilitation inpatients but have not been well described. The aim of this study was to compare patient characteristics stratified by self-reported nocturia severity in geriatric rehabilitation inpatients.
methodsThe REStORing health of acutely unwell adulTs (RESORT) is an observational, longitudinal, prospective inception cohort of geriatric rehabilitation inpatients who underwent a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) at admission and discharge. Nocturia was captured by item 7 of the American Urology Association Symptom Score (AUASS) and dichotomised as ≤1 void and >1 void at night as per the International Continence Society definition. Differences in demographic, functional, and medical characteristics of the inpatients with and without nocturia >1 were compared.
resultsOverall, 641 inpatients completed the nocturia item (mean age 82.6 [SD 7.7] years, 59.9% female). Nocturia occurred >once per night in 57.4%; mean number of episodes was 1.96 (SD 1.38), ranging from 0 to 5. There was no change in nocturia severity between admission and discharge. Daily urinary incontinence, urinary urgency, and comorbid illness were independently associated with multiple nocturia episodes. A history of falls within the last year, difficulty climbing stairs pre-admission, higher faecal incontinence score, impaired quality of life domains, higher levels of anxiety and depression were significantly more common in inpatients with multiple episodes of nocturia compared to no or only one episode of nocturia.
conclusionLower urinary tract symptoms, poor functional status and frailty markers were associated with repeated episodes of nocturia. Targeted intervention may reduce the severity of nocturia, with potential to improve sleep quality, impact therapeutic gains and influence discharge destination.
