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

backgroundPrimary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) is a multifactorial condition associated with disturbances in neurodevelopmental maturation, sleep regulation, and lower urinary tract function. This study aimed to characterize neurobehavioral, sleep-related, neurophysiological, and lower urinary tract comorbidities in children with PNE and to compare these findings with those of age-matched hospital-based controls without nocturnal enuresis. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective comparative study included 128 children with PNE and 30 age-matched controls without nocturnal enuresis or daytime lower urinary tract symptoms. Medical records were reviewed for demographic characteristics, family history of enuresis, bowel habits, sleep-related upper airway disorders, uroflowmetric parameters, electroencephalographic (EEG) findings, and lower urinary tract symptoms. ADHD symptoms were assessed using the ADHD Rating Scale-IV.

resultsThe PNE group comprised 71 boys (55.5%) and 57 girls (44.5%), with a mean age of 8.4 ± 2.1 years. A positive family history of enuresis was identified in 89 children (69.5%). ADHD symptoms were significantly more frequent in children with PNE than in controls (50.0% vs. 20.0%). Sleep-related abnormalities were common, including tonsillar hypertrophy (28.9%), adenoid hypertrophy (25.0%), snoring and mouth breathing (16.4%). Overactive bladder symptoms were identified in 43 children (33.6%). Immature alpha rhythm was observed in 49.2% of children with PNE compared with 23.3% of controls.

conclusionsChildren with PNE exhibited higher rates of ADHD symptoms, sleep-related upper airway abnormalities, lower urinary tract dysfunction, and EEG abnormalities than age-matched controls. These findings are consistent with a multidimensional clinical phenotype involving neurobehavioral, sleep-related, and bladder dysfunction and highlight the importance of comprehensive multidisciplinary assessment in children with PNE.
