Wearable Personal Uroflowmeter for Measuring Urine Leakage in Women with Incontinence: Feasibility Study.
Article in Biosensors, 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
This paper describes a novel wearable personal uroflowmeter and its use to log urine leakage episodes in women. Consisting of a miniature flow rate sensor attached under the urethral meatus, it recorded both urine flow rate and volume during activities of daily living. The sensor communicated with a determining unit incorporating a microcontroller and an inertial measurement unit worn at the waist, facilitating the post-hoc determination of which activities and changes in pose caused leakage. Six women participated in a feasibility study performed in a clinical setting. The results indicate that the uroflowmeter was 97.5% accurate in assessing micturition flow compared to gold standard uroflowmetry and leakage measurements. The system also provides subject-specific information on the relationship between physical activity and urine leakage, thereby eliminating errors due to missing data and recall bias in bladder leakage diaries and circumventing the limitations of office-based uroflowmeters.
