Risks of testosterone replacement therapy in men.
Review in Indian journal of urology : IJU : journal of the Urological Society of India, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07143474 (A Randomized Double-blind Placebo Controlled Clinical Study to Evaluate the Impacts of RhizomK as Compared to Placebo on Testosterone Levels, the Anabolic Response to Exercise and Overall Quality of Life in Physically Active Healthy Males), which is not on this map. Cited by 29 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.

Abstract
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a widely used treatment for men with symptomatic hypogonadism. The benefits seen with TRT, such as increased libido and energy level, beneficial effects on bone density, strength and muscle as well as cardioprotective effects, have been well-documented. TRT is contraindicated in men with untreated prostate and breast cancer. Men on TRT should be monitored for side-effects such as polycythemia, peripheral edema, cardiac and hepatic dysfunction.
