Article in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In recent years new surgical techniques to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia have been introduced into urological practice and evaluated in clinical studies. Complications of standard procedures, e.g. transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), can be avoided while maintaining equivalent clinical outcomes. The main goal is preservation of erectile and ejaculatory function. Furthermore, outpatient treatment associated with a rapid patient recovery would be desirable. This article presents the course of the interventions, the mechanisms of action and current clinical evidence for novel mechanical approaches of recanalization, water-based ablation as well as prostate artery embolization. Initial study results partially indicate that in the future practically all patients can be offered an individualized surgical technique, which provides optimal symptomatic and functional improvements with a minimized risk of complications.
