Exploring the Priorities of Older Adults in Managing Urinary Incontinence: a Patient-Oriented Research Approach.
Article in Canadian geriatrics journal : CGJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Urinary incontinence (UI), the complaint of involuntary leakage of urine, has a substantial impact on the quality of life of older adults. Most UI research is driven by researchers and lacks the patient perspective. The goal of this qualitative study was to gain the perspective of older adults in formulating a research agenda tailored to address their questions and improve their experience with managing UI. Methods: Implementing a community-based participatory research framework, an advisory group of eight older adults with UI were recruited to be on the research team. An initial focus group was conducted to learn about their research needs. Nominal Group Technique was used to reach saturation of themes and data was analyzed thematically. Employing a Delphi consensus method, a national online questionnaire containing 20 priorities for future UI research and education was developed in collaboration with the advisory group. Results: 59 older adults with UI rated each priority on a Likert scale. Priorities which advanced to the second round were re-rated, with an 85% response rate. 11 priorities of ≥80% agreement were retained. The highest rated priorities included relationship between physical activity and UI; support for those with UI; causes of UI and its management; sleep and UI; and public restroom accessibility. Conclusions: Findings from this study will help researchers and health-care professionals understand and address the needs of older adults with UI. Efforts should be made to translate research findings in this area and disseminate them in a medium accessible to older adults.
