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

purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the correlation between bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and bladder trabeculation in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

methodsWe analyzed data from consecutive BPH patients from July 2014 to June 2024, who underwent urodynamic study (UDS) and cystourethroscopy. The results of free uroflowmetry, filling cystometry, and pressure-flow study were analyzed to evaluate functional parameters. For anatomical parameters, bladder trabeculation grade, lateral lobe protrusion of prostate, and bladder neck elevation (BNE) measured in cystourethroscopy were used. BOO was defined as the BOO index of 40 or higher in UDS. Bladder trabeculation was graded using our previous studies.

resultsAmong total of 1,452 BPH patients, 1,028 patients had trabeculation on cystoscopy. Age, serum prostate-specific antigen, postvoid residual, total prostate volume, transition zone volume, terminal type detrusor overactivity, detrusor pressure at the maximal flow rate, bladder contractility index (BCI), and BOO index increased according to increase in bladder trabeculation. Multivariable logistic analysis showed that bladder trabeculation was significantly associated with age (odds ratio [OR], 1.05; P<0.001), kissing sign (OR, 1.55; P=0.007), BNE (OR, 1.76; P<0.001), detrusor overactivity (OR, 1.88; P=0.002), BCI (OR, 1.01; P=0.037), BOO (OR, 2.27; P<0.001). BOO had the greatest correlation with bladder trabeculation. In addition, BOO index showed a positive correlation (r=0.39, P<0.001) with bladder trabeculation. BOO index well distinguished between moderate trabeculation of grade 2 or higher in receiver operating characteristic analysis (area under curve=0.72, P<0.001).

conclusionOur results showed that the severity of BOO is positively associated with the severity of bladder trabeculation.
