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 hypothesisPregnant women's physical health and quality of life are affected by gestational stress urinary incontinence (GSUI), requiring therapeutic attention to this obstetric issue.

methodsTo review and analyze the factors influencing GSUI, a literature search was conducted in both Chinese and English databases, including Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, WanFang, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. Cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, and other studies that fit the population and research focus were included; conference papers and review articles were not.

resultsTwenty studies were included. In the univariate analysis, factors influencing GSUI included: previous vaginal delivery, parity, miscarriage, previous infant > 4 kg, age, constipation during pregnancy, pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), and multiple gravidity. In the multivariate analysis, factors influencing GSUI included previous vaginal delivery, parity, previous infant > 4 kg, age, constipation during pregnancy, PFMT, BMI during pregnancy, and gestational age.

conclusionsPrevious vaginal delivery, constipation, and previous infant > 4 kg are key risk factors for GSUI, with PFMT showing a protective effect. Clinicians should integrate preventive strategies into antenatal care to reduce the incidence of GSUI.
