Sexual dysfunction after cystectomy and urinary diversion.
Review in Nature reviews. Urology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 42 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
Erectile dysfunction (ED) in men and sexual dysfunction in men and women are common after cystectomy and urinary diversion. Research has focused on both qualifying the prevalence of ED following cystectomy and identifying surgical approaches to limit sexual dysfunction after surgery, but most studies have been limited by small patient populations, an absence of control groups, and a lack of adjustment for confounding factors. Similarly, quality of life (QoL) research studies have also emerged in the context of bladder cancer and cystectomy, and increase our understanding of sexual outcomes associated with cystectomy. A number of instruments for collection of patient-reported outcomes among patients with bladder cancer treated with cystectomy are available for the assessment of condition-specific and procedure-specific QoL. However, other factors that negatively affect sexual function after removal of the bladder, such as psychological issues, age, and health-related competing risks for ED, body image, partner response, and change in life course and sexual priorities, have received less attention. Nevertheless, ED and sexual dysfunction are important complications of cystectomy and urinary diversion. Although changes in the approach to surgery, such as nerve-sparing cystectomy, might improve outcomes, evaluation and management of the source factors of ED and sexual dysfunction are necessary to optimize recovery of function.
