Male sexual disturbances in liver diseases: what do we know?
Review in Journal of endocrinological investigation. 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
The alterations of sexual function known as the erectile dysfunction are quite frequent among patients affected by liver diseases and they tend to increase in advanced liver failure. This process is directly linked to cirrhosis or its treatments, such as liver transplantation, or to certain drugs (e.g. beta-blockers). Independent of cirrhosis, other factors may cause sexual problems in these patients. Alcohol itself seems to worsen sexual function in the absence of cirrhosis. Viral hepatitis has an uncertain influence on male gonadic function and even antiviral therapy itself can worsen some seminal and hormonal parameters, although it is reversible. Quality of life may be greatly decreased in cases of cirrhosis where these alterations are present, so it is important to value and care for them, if possible. This review investigates the major male sexual disturbances in liver diseases of various origins.
