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

This study aimed to investigate the long-term physiological and morphological changes in the bladders of diabetic rats. Sixty-nine female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into a control and six diabetic (3 days and 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks after induction of type 1 diabetes) groups. Metabolic cages and cystometry were used to evaluate bladder function. Bladder contractility was assessed using an organ bath test, and Masson's trichrome staining was performed. In the metabolic cage study, the urination frequency during the dark period significantly increased in the early stages at 3 days of diabetes (p < 0.05). The voiding interval significantly increased (p < 0.05) at 8-12 weeks of diabetes, while the residual urine volume and voiding efficiency worsened at 24 weeks. In the organ bath study, the dose-response curve of carbachol for median effective concentration did not change; however, the bladder contractile force was enhanced at 8 weeks (p = 0.028). Histological analysis revealed increased fibrosis at 4 weeks of diabetes. Diabetic bladder dysfunction is characterized by storage and voiding bladder activity changes in the early stages that induces urinary frequency and reduced voiding efficiency in the late phase; this turning point occurs at 8 weeks after diabetes.
