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
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the protective role of dietary vitamin B12 against depression, particularly as its prevalence is notably high among women experiencing urinary incontinence (UI). Nevertheless, the relationship between vitamin B12 intake, UI, and depression requires further clarification. This research aims to explore this association specifically among women. Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from 14,154 women sourced from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2007 and 2018. Depression was measured using the Personal Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Vitamin B12 intake was assessed through 24-h dietary recall interviews. Weighted univariate and multivariate logistic regression models assessed the relationships between UI, vitamin B12 intake, and depression in women, with additional analyses conducted across different age, body mass index (BMI), and vaginal delivery groups. Results are presented as odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: The study included 14,154 women, averaging 48.18±0.27 years in age, of whom 1609 (11.37%) exhibited depressive symptoms. Women with stress UI (OR=1.55, 95% CI: 1.26-1.91), urgency UI (OR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.52-2.44), and mixed UI (OR=2.60, 95% CI: 2.13-3.19) showed significantly greater odds of depression compared to those without UI. Vitamin B12 intake of ≥2.4 mcg/day was associated with lower odds of depression (OR=0.95, 95% CI: 0.080-1.14). In patients with UI, the odds of depression gradually decreased with a vitamin B12 intake of ≥2.4 mcg/day. A moderating role of vitamin B12 intake was observed among women with UI aged ≤ 64 years, with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m Conclusion: UI is linked to elevated depression odds, while vitamin B12 intake appears to moderate this relationship. It is essential for healthcare providers to prioritize early depression assessments in women with UI and to offer timely interventions to enhance their quality of life.
