Pain management in our daily practice: should we re-evaluate?
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Treatment strategies of back pain are variable. We describe an unusual case of polyuria and erectile dysfunction with a short-term tramadol use. A 29-year-old man presented to our clinic with worsening lower back pain. After poor control of his pain on Non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, tramadol was prescribed. After 3 days of starting tramadol, he experienced significant polyuria and erectile dysfunction with inability to ejaculate or obtain orgasm. He denied any systemic symptoms. On follow-up, he reported complete resolution of his polyuria and erectile dysfunction within 24 h of stopping tramadol, in addition to satisfactory control of his pain. Polyuria and erectile dysfunction are very uncommon side effects of tramadol, reported in <1% of chronic users. This is the first case report to demonstrate such a rapid and aggressive onset of this combination of rare side effects with the complete resolution after tramadol discontinuation.
