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

introduction and hypothesisCoital incontinence is defined as urinary incontinence before, during, or after sexual intercourse. This study aimed to determine the frequency of coital incontinence and when it occurs in women with urinary incontinence.

methodsA systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted. The publications meeting the inclusion criteria were searched between February and April 2024. A search of the PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, EBSCO CINAHL Plus, and Cochrane Library databases was performed. The methodological qualities of the studies were examined using a checklist developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute. All analyses were performed using comprehensive meta-analysis (CMA).

resultsThe study included 23 articles with a total sample size of 21,650. According to the study results, the estimated prevalence of coital incontinence in women with urinary incontinence was 35.3% (95% CI 0.363 (0.272-0.443); z 0.91, p < 0.0001), coital incontinence was most frequently observed during penetration, and its estimated prevalence was 50.5% (95% CI 0.505 (0.336-0.673); tau 1.163, p < 0.0001).

conclusionCoital incontinence is common in women with urinary incontinence. It was also concluded that approximately half of the women with urinary incontinence leak urine during penetration. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NO: CRD42024512307.
