Effects of Testosterone on Benign and Malignant Conditions of the Prostate.
Article in Current sexual health reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purpose of the reviewThis review summarizes the current literature regarding the effects of testosterone therapy (TTh) on common disorders of the prostate. RECENT
findingsTestosterone therapy has gained credibility over the last several decades as a potentially safe co-treatment modality for men with benign and malignant prostatic conditions. Our understanding of the effects of testosterone on the prostate continues to evolve with ongoing clinical and basic science research. Findings of these studies have reinvigorated the debate over the effects of testosterone on benign and malignant disorders of the prostate, including BPH, chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS), and prostate cancer. SUMMARY: Despite the burgeoning body of data claiming the safety and efficacy of TTh in common prostatic conditions (including BPH, CP/CPPS, and prostate cancer), diligent monitoring, appropriate patient selection, and informed consent are critical until more definitive studies are performed.
