Effect of Edentulism and Oral Quality of Life on Sexual Functions in Men: A Cohort Prospective Study.
Article in Sexual medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionEdentulism has a serious impact on quality of life (QoL), and changes in QoL can affect sexual functioning.
aimTo assess the correlation between oral health-related quality of life (OHQoL) and sexual function in edentulous men.
methodsA total of 148 men (18-70 years) with incomplete natural dentition completed the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) and Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) at 4 time points: before (T
resultsIIEF total scores differed significantly between the time points (P < .001), with medians and interquartile ranges (IQR) of 46 (7), 42 (8), 49 (6), and 52 (5) at T
main outcome measureChanges and correlations in IEFF and OHIP-14 scores; SD and ED prevalances at T CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Sexual functions was significantly correlate with OHQoL; thus patients with ED should also be examined in terms of toothlessness.
conclusionOHQoL was significantly associated with sexual function in men. However, correcting the problem of edentulism improved OHQoL and sexual function, with the best results observed after 1-year follow-up. H Turgut, S Turgut.
