Frailty and Stress Urinary Incontinence: Bayesian Network and Discrete Mathematical Approach Using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2005-2018 Data.

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
Background Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is common among older women and may be associated with frailty. Frailty, characterized by reduced physiological reserves and muscle weakness, can impair pelvic floor function and increase the risk of SUI. This study evaluates the association between frailty and SUI using a large dataset. Methods Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2005-2018 were analyzed, including 6,386 women aged ≥20 years with complete frailty and SUI data. Frailty was classified using NHANES-derived criteria. SUI was assessed through self-reported questionnaires. Propensity score matching adjusted for confounders. Logistic regression and Bayesian modeling were applied to evaluate associations. Results SUI prevalence was higher in frail individuals (607 (32.0%) vs. 414 (15.0%), p < 0.001). Frailty independently predicted SUI (OR 1.48; 95% CI 1.25-1.75; p < 0.001). Bayesian modeling demonstrated interconnections between frailty, SUI, and functional limitations. Conclusions Frailty is a significant predictor of SUI in women. Identifying frailty status may improve SUI risk stratification and guide targeted interventions.
