[Prevention and alternative methods for prophylaxis of recurrent urinary tract infections in women].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
General recommendations to prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) result in about one-third of patients remaining free of recurrences. Oral and parenteral immunotherapy were effective in several controlled studies for prevention of rUTI. These therapies can be combined with acute antibiotic therapy. Vaginal prophylaxis with oestriol has proven its positive effect without serious gynaecological side effects. Also there is increasing evidence that cranberries prevent rUTI. The exact mode (juice, tablets or preserved berries), dosage and duration of this therapy remain to be defined. There are also promising therapy modalities such as changing bacterial gut flora, general immune response (acupuncture, inpatient rehabilitation) and urine acidity.
