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

Objective: This study aims to investigate the effect of hydrodistension under local anesthesia on clinical outcomes in subtypes of non-Hunner lesion interstitial cystitis (NHIC), categorized by hemorrhage severity. Methods: Based on a simplified bladder hemorrhage grading system, we enrolled 12 female patients with multiple or diffuse punctate hemorrhage (Group IC1) and 12 female patients with focal punctate hemorrhage only (Group IC2). All participants underwent cystoscopy with hydrodistension (CWH). Maximum bladder capacity (MBC), Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index (ICSI), Interstitial Cystitis Problem Index (ICPI), and visual analogue scale (VAS) were recorded at baseline, and participants were followed up for 6 months. Results: Group IC1 exhibited significantly lower preoperative MBC (p<0.05). All outcome measures improved significantly at one week post-procedure in both groups (p<0.05), with no significant between-group difference in the magnitude of improvement (p>0.05). During subsequent follow-up, ICSI scores in Group IC1 increased significantly at 3 months (p<0.05), whereas ICPI scores in both groups increased significantly at 6 months (p<0.05). Conclusion: NHIC patients with more severe bladder mucosal hemorrhage exhibited smaller baseline MBC and earlier ICSI score elevation following CWH under local anesthesia. These findings may inform individualized intervention strategies, support the development of efficacy prediction models, and optimize follow-up protocols and treatment escalation timing, thereby contributing to improved quality of life in this patient population.
