The Egydio geometrical procedure for managing penile curvature using a single relaxing incision: A single-centre experience with 330 patients.
Article in Arab journal of urology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo present our 3-year experience with the Egydio's geometrical procedure for managing penile curvature with some modifications. PATIENTS AND
methodsIn all, 330 patients (mean age 51 years) that underwent the Egydio's procedure as day cases were included in this study.
resultsThe mean penile curvature was 45° and 27.3% of the patients reported mild erectile dysfunction (ED) preoperatively. Partial excision of the calcified plaque was performed in 12.1% of the patients. Partial glans necrosis was recorded in one patient, while haematoma was recorded in 9%, and delayed wound healing in 3%. There was residual curvature (mean 20°) requiring reoperation in 8.2% of the patients. In all, 10% of the patients were dissatisfied with their results, while of the remainder, 75.2% were totally satisfied and 14.8% partially satisfied. ED was reported in 31.8% of the patients (moderate: 17.3% and significant: 2.7%).
conclusionsThe Egydio geometrical technique for the treatment of penile curvature seems to be a simple, reproducible, safe, and efficient operation.
