1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 and hypothesisThe objective was to detect subtypes of urinary incontinence (UI) and their effects on quality of life (QoL) and sexual function among women seeking weight loss.

methodsA cross-sectional study focusing on women seeking weight loss with UI symptoms was carried out. Participants were stratified into three groups: stress UI, urgency UI, and mixed UI groups. The effects of the three groups on QoL and sexual function were compared.

resultsA total of 564 individuals (46.8%) were reported to present with UI symptoms. Among these, 216 (38.3%), 71 (12.6%), and 277 (49.1%) had stress UI, urgency UI, and mixed UI respectively. The severity of UI was greater in the urgency UI and mixed UI groups than in the stress UI group, with varying ratios observed among patients with different severities of UI: stress UI was highest in mild cases, and the mixed UI was highest in moderate or severe cases. Mixed UI had the most detrimental effect on QoL and sexual function. However, after controlling for the severity of UI, mixed UI still had a greater detrimental effect on UI-specific QoL, and no differences were identified among the three groups regarding general QoL or sexual function.

conclusionThis study revealed variations in the constituent ratios of UI subtypes related to the severity of UI and the effects of various UI subtypes on QoL and sexual function among women seeking weight loss. Notably, the mixed UI demonstrated the most severe symptoms and the most detrimental impact, particularly as assessed by UI-specific QoL questionnaires.
