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
Objective: Cardiovascular disease and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) may be interconnected. This study aimed to investigate whether indicators of oxidative stress play a moderating role in the relationship between SUI and Life's Crucial 9 (LC9), a cardiovascular health (CVH) index incorporating mental health. Methods: Data from 5,292 US women aged 20 and older were analyzed using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database from 2005 to 2018. The LC9 score, which was determined by averaging the sum of the eight LE8 component scores and the depression score. To assess the relationship between LC9 and SUI, restricted cubic splines (RCS) analysis and weighted multivariate logistic regression were employed. Additionally, mediation analysis was conducted to evaluate the indirect impact of oxidative stress markers on this relationship. Results: After adjusting for potential confounders, individuals in the second and highest tertiles of LC9 exhibited significantly higher odds of SUI [odds ratios (OR) for each 1-point increase were 0.817 and 0.765; 95% confidence intervals (CI), 0.673-0.993 and 0.600-0.975, respectively]. Furthermore, RCS results suggested an approximately linear dose-response relationship between LC9 and the prevalence of SUI. Additionally, mediation analysis indicated that oxidative stress biomarkers, specifically bilirubin and uric acid, mediated the relationship between LC9 and SUI, with mediation proportions of 2.22% and 2.64%, respectively ( Conclusion: The present study suggests that higher LC9 scores, which represent ideal CVH, are significantly associated with reduced odds of SUI. Additionally, oxidative stress biomarkers may play a mediating role in this relationship.
