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

backgroundsThe number of practicing female urologists is rising. The aim of this study is to evaluate the acceptance of female urologists by male patients and their partners.

Two types of questionnaires were used. One questionnaire asked "I want to be seen by: (I) a male urologist or (II) a female urologist or (III) no preference" (Group

resultsOverall, 377 questionnaires were sent to patients. One hundred and ninety-six questionnaires (52.0%) were returned. In Group
