Rapid onset of action with alfuzosin 10 mg once daily in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial.
Trial report in Prostate cancer and prostatic diseases, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 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
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted to investigate whether alfuzosin 10 mg once daily improves the maximum flow rate (Q(max)) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) after 1 week and 1 month of treatment. A total of 372 men aged > or = 50 years with symptomatic BPH received alfuzosin or placebo for 28 days. Q(max) increased significantly from baseline at day 8 with alfuzosin (P<0.001 versus placebo); this improvement was evident within 24 h after the first dose and was maintained at day 29. LUTS improved from baseline with alfuzosin at day 8 (P=0.07 versus placebo) and day 29 (P=0.003 versus placebo). Alfuzosin 10 mg once daily exhibits a rapid onset of action, with improvements in Q(max) and LUTS maintained through 1 month of treatment.
