Minimizing Penile Implant Infection: A Literature Review of Patient and Surgical Factors.
Review in Current urology reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction in patients' refractory to oral or injectable treatment. While the rate of infection has decreased over the past decade, it is still the most feared complication of IPP placement. Here, we assemble possible patient and surgical factors attributing to the risk of infection. Studies have been gathered addressing each of these factors, and an Oxford Level of Evidence is assigned to each recommendation based on strength of the study. The goal of this review is to inform surgeons of possible risks in order to further reduce the risk of infection and thus increase success of IPP placement.
