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

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common male urological disease characterized by chronic pelvic pain. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has been used to treat patients with CP/CPPS, but the parameters used by ESWT are not uniformly determined. Herein, this study aims to assess the effects of ESWT with different energy flux densities on pelvic pain in CP/CPPS rats and to explore the mechanisms. A rat model of CP/CPPS was induced by intraprostatic injection of 1% carrageenan. ESWT with different energy flux densities (0.09, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40 mJ/mm
