Duration of detrusor overactivity as an independent predictive factor of upper urinary tract deterioration in patients with traumatic spinal cord injury: results of a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Spinal cord, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo determine whether duration of detrusor overactivity (DO) during a cystometric study is an independent predictive factor of upper urinary tract deterioration (UUTD) in patients with traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI). STUDY
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingA rehabilitation facility in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
methodsData were obtained from medical records of patients who underwent cystometric evaluation at 6-12 months after TSCI. The independent predictor of interest is the duration of DO, which was evaluated by the DO/cystometry ratio (DOratio). Other conventional urodynamic parameters (maximum detrusor pressure, cystometric capacity, bladder compliance, and detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia) and clinical parameters (age, sex, level and severity of injury, comorbidities, bladder emptying method, and history of urinary tract infection) were determined. The outcome was UUTD, which is indicated by chronic kidney disease (GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m
resultsMedical records of 194 patients with TSCI were included in the study. During a combined total of 1260 follow-up years of those patients, 34 UUTD events were identified, indicating an incidence rate of 27.0 cases per 1000 person-years. After adjusting for all other parameters, a high DOratio (≥0.33) was significantly associated with UUTD (hazard ratio = 3.00 [95% CI: 1.12-7.99], p = 0.025).
conclusionDOratio may be an independent cystometric predictor of UUTD in patients with TSCI. However, further prospective study is needed prior to applying DOratio as a predictor of UUTD in clinical settings. CLINICAL
trial registrationThere was no clinical trial registration since this study is not a clinical trial.
