Chlamydial infections in urology.
Review in World journal of urology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Chlamydia trachomatis is the most frequent cause for sexually transmitted diseases in European countries. The organism has an intracellular habitat with a very specific life cycle. A variety of diagnostic tests have been developed with different sensitivity and specificity. Interpretation of these tests can sometimes be difficult. Diseases caused by C. trachomatis in men comprise urethritis, prostatitis, epididymitis, infertility and reactive arthritis. Especially in prostatitis, the exact role of C. trachomatis is still under debate for the technical difficulties localizing the pathogen to the prostate. For treatment, only some antibiotics are effective because of the intracellular habitat of the pathogen. Prevention of infection comprises treatment and screening efforts.
