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

Ventral penile curvature in Peyronie's disease (PD) is not very common but may lead to inability for sexual intercourse, especially in severe cases > 60°. Ventral curvatures are most often addressed surgically with plication owing to fear of urethral complications, as it requires the mobilisation of the urethra. In this study, the ventral sealing technique is introduced for correction of ventral curvatures in patients with PD. The surgical approach includes the mobilisation of the neurovascular bundle and the urethra. At the point of maximum curvature on the ventral aspect of the penis, a partial plaque excision is performed and the resulting tunical defect is sealed (closed) with a self-adhesive collagen fleece (TachoSil
