Overactive Bladder and Its Impact on Everyday Life: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
aimThe aim of this study was to explore the challenges and limitations experienced in everyday life by people living with overactive bladder (OAB). Design
resultsThirteen participants were included, eight women and five men, with an age range of 39-88 years. Three main themes emerged: (i) Organizing everyday life to accommodate the OAB, (ii) Self-taboo and shame, and (iii) Relatives' knowledge and understanding of the challenges of living with OAB. The findings indicate that OAB significantly impacts both physical and mental well-being and daily life. Participants felt limited in their daily activities and experienced poor quality of sleep. OAB prevented them from engaging in activities that they had previously enjoyed. Participants experienced a form of self-taboo and shame due to their OAB. Conclusion
