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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Questionnaire for Urinary Incontinence Diagnosis (QUID), which was developed for women with urinary incontinence.
methodsThis cross-sectional, methodological study included 600 female participants aged 18 years and above with Turkish reading and writing skills. Psychometric methods comprised correlation analysis, internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha), test-retest reliability, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The QUID, King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ), and Incontinence Severity Index (ISI) were administered consecutively to assess construct validity and diagnostic performance. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05.
resultsThe Turkish version of the QUID demonstrated high validity and reliability in distinguishing stress and urge urinary incontinence. The QUID scores were significantly positively correlated with the KHQ and ISI scores, indicating consistency with the established measures (p < 0.05). The test‒retest reliability analysis confirmed that the QUID scale provided consistent results over time, with high internal consistency reflected by a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.858, which suggests the questionnaire's stability and reliability for repeated measurements. Additionally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses revealed area under the curve (AUC) values ranging from 0.886 to 0.996 for each subscale, highlighting the high discriminative power of the QUID in distinguishing different types of urinary incontinence effectively.
conclusionsThe results of this study indicate that the Turkish version of the QUID is a reliable and valid tool for diagnosing urinary incontinence in clinical practice and may contribute positively to patients' quality of life by providing an accurate diagnosis.
