Successful Penile Replantation and the Role of Postreplantation Sildenafil Therapy: Report of 2 Cases and Literature Review.
Article in Sexual medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Penile amputation is a rare clinical emergency necessitating urgent urologic and microsurgical intervention. Microvascular replantation has become a conventional form of management, associated with significantly increased viability of the implanted tissue and a lower rate of complications. However, postreplantation treatment intended to promote early recovery of sexual function has been reported only seldomly. Here we report 2 cases of successful penile replantation with postreplantation daily sildenafil therapy. The patients were followed for 24 months and 8 months, respectively, from the date of repair. First intercourse was achieved at 92 days and 105 days, respectively. This is the first report of the use of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors in postoperative care of penile replantation.
