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
Topiramate (TPM) is a newer antiepileptic drug with high efficacy in treating various neurological disorders, especially epilepsy and migraine. The adverse effects of TPM therapy are mainly central nervous system-related somnolence and dizziness. There are rare reports about the role of TPM on sexual effects, but with inconsistent results. In this report, we describe a 31-year-old man who developed erectile dysfunction after several months of TPM use. Complete urological and sexual psychiatric evaluations were done. There was lack of an identifiable organic basis and psychiatric pathology in this patient. The erectile dysfunction improved only after the termination of TPM, documenting the temporal relationship. We reviewed and discussed the clinical aspect of TPM use in erectile dysfunction. This case and the rare cases of erectile dysfunction in TPM use reported in the literature show that TPM is worth to be paid attention to whenever it is prescribed in a wide range of neurological disorders.
