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

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) refer to a group of symptoms related to bladder, prostate, and urethra. LUTS are common in men and the severity increases with age. LUTS are frequently associated with sexual dysfunction, such as premature ejaculation (PE), standing as the most common sexual dysfunction in men. Both LUTS and PE cause distress and dissatisfaction for the patient and his partner. This systematic review aims to determine the relationship between LUTS and PE in men. Two reviewers independently conduct a literature search in five online databases (PubMed, Scopus, Proquest, ClinicalKey, and ScienceDirect). In addition, reviewers also reviewed the reference list of chosen articles to identify additional relevant studies. Twelve articles were included in this systematic review that consists of one cohort study and 11 cross-sectional studies. The total scores of each identified study ranged from "poor" to "good." The prevalence of PE in LUTS ranged from 12 to 77%. Most of the studies showed a significant relationship between LUTS and PE. PE is more common in older age with the peak prevalence in age of 60-69 years old. There is a possible association between PE and LUTS. Further research using cohort or case-control study design on this topic is needed.
