This is a horizontal bar chart depicting the Risk of Bias for all studies with UI or QOL outcomes. The categories of assessment, in the left-hand column, are adequate generation of a randomized sequence, allocation concealment, blinding of patients, blinding of outcome assessors, intention-to-treat analysis, incomplete result data (attrition bias), group similarity at baseline (selection bias), interventions adequately described, and compliance with interventions. The horizontal bars are colored green for low risk of bias, yellow for unclear risk of bias, and red for high risk of bias.
