[Trial registration for the improvement of transparency in scientific research. The German Association of Urology now enables registration in the register network of the WHO].

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
Transparency is essential for the efficient transfer of scientific knowledge from research into practice but is often impaired by non-publication of whole studies or by inappropriate publication of trial results. Prospective trial registration has the potential to increase transparency in scientific research because it allows the evaluation of trial methodology and the appraisal of potential publication bias. Trial registration is a scientific, ethical and moral obligation which needs self-commitment of researchers and sponsors to prospective trial registration. The urological trial register of the German Society of Urology is now affiliated with the German Register of Clinical Studies, a national primary register, which enables easy registration in the register network of the WHO.
