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

Prostate cancer (PC) and its associated treatments can cause significant cardiovascular and sexual dysfunctions. While structured exercise interventions can induce positive outcomes in males with PC, there are limited data on its effects on cardiovascular health, erectile function, or the combination of these outcomes. It has been proposed that positive changes in biomarkers of cardiovascular health through physical exercise programs, can result in cardiovascular remodelling and improve penile haemodynamic and erectile function recovery in those with metabolic syndrome and/or cardiovascular diseases, although the data is accruing in males who are diagnosed and/or treated for PC. While the results of this review article support structured physical exercise interventions to effectively prevent and mitigate the development of both sexual and cardiovascular dysfunctions in males with PC, appropriate caution should be maintained and future clinical research should focus on the development of standardised and evidence-based exercise guidelines in the setting of PC survivorship.
