The evaluation and management of testosterone deficiency: the new frontier in urology and men's health.
Review in Current urology reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Testosterone deficiency (TD) is a common clinical condition that causes sexual and non-sexual symptoms. Low serum concentrations of testosterone also predict significant health outcomes, such as diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and increased mortality. Treatment with testosterone therapy (TTh) effectively improves symptoms, and also has a positive impact on body composition and bone density. Since there is no serum testosterone value that reliably identifies men who will respond to treatment from those who will not, healthcare providers must exercise clinical judgment in making the diagnosis of TD. Multiple formulations of TTh are available, each with advantages and disadvantages. Overall, TTh is relatively safe but the risks, such as erythrocytosis, makes long-term monitoring mandatory. The evidence does not support concerns regarding cardiovascular and prostate cancer risks.
