Overactive bladder in the male patient: epidemiology, etiology, evaluation, and treatment.
Review in Current urology reports, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The urologist's approach to the diagnosis and treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in male patients has changed significantly over the past decade. Advances in the basic science arena combined with a wealth of clinical data have pointed to the importance of bladder pathophysiology in the development of urinary symptoms. Historically, men with LUTS were diagnosed with "prostatism," an all-encompassing term that includes both voiding and storage symptoms that may or may not be related to prostatic obstruction. Parallel to the scientific advances in the field, the urologic lexicon began to evolve and has allowed us to more specifically describe, and therefore investigate and treat, different aspects of male LUTS. It is now well recognized that many men suffer from storage symptoms that may be more related to bladder dysfunction than to prostatic obstruction. It will be critical to integrate our knowledge of prostatic growth and obstruction, the bladder response to outlet obstruction, environmental and lifestyle factors, and age-related changes to fully understand the complex pathophysiology of male LUTS, specifically overactive bladder syndrome.
