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

contextIn the year 2003-2004 a circumstantial investigation of young men reproductive health parameters was performed in Nordic and Baltic countries, but sexuality remained undetermined.

objectiveTo determine the suitability of the European Male Ageing Study - Sexual Function Questionnaire (EMAS - SFQ) for investigation of sexuality of 26-36 year aged general population and to investigate sexuality of Kaunas participants in the project "The reproductive function of Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian Young men (2003-2004)" (KELLY), using EMAS - SFQ.

designSixty one 26-36 year aged KELLY men were recaptured from the list of participants in a 2003-2004 study and completed EMAS - SFQ. Their anthropometric characteristics, scores of sexuality (22 parameters from EMAS - SFQ, 3 calculated parameters and 2 parameters consisting from answers to the only question - masturbation and erectile function-for each participant) were analysed, in conjunction with anthropometric, sperm quality and hormone levels of 2003-2004 18-25 year old general population.

resultsOverall sexual functioning and masturbation were higher as compared to all the published data for different age men and different testosterone concentration groups of EMAS study.

conclusionsKELLY sexuality results, obtained using EMAS - SFQ, would be considered as referral values for young men in countries with generally good reproductive health.
