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

introductionUrinary incontinence has a negative impact on women's quality of life. One way to treat this may be to perform pelvic floor muscle exercises. This study evaluated the effects of an original exercise programme performed for 6 weeks. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study involved premenopausal (before-menopause group exercise - BMGE) and postmenopausal (post-menopause group exercise - PMGE) groups of women. Postural pattern, pelvic type were determined prior to exercise. A 1-day subpubic test was used to determine the amount of urine lost before and after exercise. The Kruskal-Wallis test, Dunn test and Wilcoxon test were used.

resultsThe results indicate that the original exercise programme had the effect of reducing urine loss in both groups,

conclusionsThe original exercise programme reduced stress urinary incontinence in both groups women. Postural pattern, pelvic type, number of deliveries and route of delivery had no effect on the incidence of urinary incontinence in both groups of women.
