[UroLift®: an operative non-ablative procedure for treatment of benign prostatic syndrome].

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 implantation of a tissue retractor (UroLift®, Neotract, Pleasanton, CA) allows for the first time as a non-ablative operative technique, moderate deobstruction without removal or destruction of prostate tissue. The achievable treatment results are at least comparable to drug therapy with respect to alleviation of suffering and symptoms (primary treatment aim) and superior with respect deobstruction. The advantage of this method compared to all other conservative and operative therapy procedures is preservation of sexual function. An evaluation of this method is currently being carried out and compared to TURP in prospective, randomized studies (BPH6 study) and the results are expected in 2015.
