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

objectiveThis research sought to examine the relationship between toilet behaviors and recurrent urinary tract infections in women.

methodsThis descriptive correlational study was conducted with female patients with recurrent urinary tract infections who applied to the urology outpatient clinic of a city hospital in Istanbul between March 2023 and April 2024. Data were collected using the Patient Information Form and Toileting Behavior-Women's Elimination Behaviors Scale.

resultsThe total mean score of the Toileting Behavior-Women's Elimination Behaviors Scale was found to be 49.79±9.98 in the patients. When the total mean scores of the Toileting Behavior-Women's Elimination Behaviors Scale were examined according to the individual characteristics of the patients, it was found that there was a statistical difference in the mean score of the Toileting Behavior-Women's Elimination Behaviors Scale according to marital status, education level, incontinence status, preferred toilet position inside, and outside the home (p<0.05) and that there was a statistical relationship between age and the mean score of the Toileting Behavior-Women's Elimination Behaviors Scale (p<0.05).

conclusionIncreasing age had a negative effect on early voiding and straining behaviors, and the presence of incontinence had a negative effect on early voiding and general toilet behavior in women with recurrent urinary tract infections.
