Prevalence and Trends in Overactive Bladder Among Women in the United States, 2005-2020.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introduction and hypothesisTo examine the current prevalence and trends of OAB among US adult women and correlations between OAB and potential risk factors.
methodsThe study used the nationally representative data from NHANES. Seven cycles' data on OAB from 2005-2020 were analyzed. The weighted prevalence and corresponding 95% confidence intervals of OAB in these seven cycles were calculated. The temporal trends in OAB were investigated by linear regression. Multivariate-adjusted weighted logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the correlation between OAB and several participants' factors.
resultsThe overall prevalence of OAB had a significant increase from 18.7% in the 2005-2006 cycle to 22.1% in the 2017-2020 cycle (difference 3.4% [95% CI 2.11-4.69%)]; P
conclusionsThe contemporary prevalence of OAB was high, affecting 22.1% of US women, and the estimated overall prevalence showed an upward trend from 2005 to 2020.
