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: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of bladder hydrodistension combined with oral mirabegron and intravesical instillation in patients with interstitial cystitis(IC). Methodology: This was a retrospective study. Ninety patients diagnosed with IC at The Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University between October 2023 to October 2025 were retrospectively enrolled and randomized into two groups( Results: After six months of treatment, scores on the Pelvic Pain and Urgency/Frequency Patient Symptom Scale, Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index, and Interstitial Cystitis Problem Index were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group( Conclusion: The combination of bladder hydrodistension, oral mirabegron, and intravesical instillation demonstrates superior clinical benefit in patients with IC. This regimen can enhance symptom relief, decrease urinary frequency, expand bladder capacity, and reduce urinary levels of EGF, NGF, and IGF-1 without a significant increase in adverse events.
