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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesTo relate types of Urinary Incontinence (UI) with obstetric, age, and ethnic factors of interest-a cross-sectional study Methods, in the northern provinces of Ecuador.
methodsA descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with a study population of 2039 women with urinary incontinence (UI), recruited between October and November 2022 across different areas of the provinces of Imbabura, Carchi, and Esmeraldas. Data were collected using a characterization questionnaire and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-IU-SF). The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. To quantify the association between risk factors and urinary incontinence,
resultsA significant association with higher risk was observed between stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and women with a history of cesarean section (13.1%; OR = 1.34;
conclusionsUrinary incontinence in women is statistically associated with obstetric, age-related, and ethnic risk factors. These findings contribute scientific evidence specific to the Ecuadorian population, supporting the development of prevention and health promotion programs, as well as early interventions aimed at reducing the impact on women's quality of life, health, and the economic well-being of their families.
