Perplexity of penile rehabilitation following radical prostatectomy.
Review in Turkish journal of urology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Radical prostatectomy has significantly improved prostate cancer survival rates but continues to have a negative impact on the patient's erectile function (EF). In attempts to improve erectile dysfunction (ED), clinicians have incorporated different treatment modalities to restore EF. Penile rehabilitation consists of understanding the mechanisms that affect post-prostatectomy EF and utilizing pharmacologic agents, devices, and interventions to promote the male sexual function. This article aims to summarize the available scientific research involving penile rehabilitation. Even though the current literature lacks to prove its irrefutable effectiveness, penile rehabilitation has a positive impact at the molecular and cellular levels, and it is widely adopted in clinic practices.
