1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purpose of reviewThe prevalence of hypertension and erectile dysfunction has steadily increased, and greater than 40% of men with erectile dysfunction concurrently share a diagnosis of hypertension. The treatment of the patient with both diseases poses a clinical challenge as both are closely correlated and share multiple overlapping risk factors.To address the recognized knowledge gap among clinicians who care for these patients, we will review the current literature on the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction in the hypertensive patient and will provide recommendations for the management of this challenging patient population. RECENT

findingsThe pharmacological treatment of hypertension may adversely affect sexual function, and certain treatments for erectile dysfunction are contraindicated or cautioned against with certain antihypertensive agents. In review of the literature, we find that the clinician should opt to use an angiotensin-receptor blocker followed by an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or calcium channel blocker for the treatment of hypertension in patients with erectile dysfunction. Other agents require careful consideration for adverse effects on sexual function. Men with erectile dysfunction should be assessed for cardiovascular fitness for sexual activity, and PDE-5 inhibitors remain the first-line treatment for erectile dysfunction.
