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
backgroundErectile dysfunction (ED) is the second sexual dysfunction affecting men. Penile duplex ultrasound (PDU) with intracavernous injection of a vasoactive agent as alprostadil or papaverine, may play an important role in differentiating psychogenic from vasculogenic ED (arterial or venooclusive) and may also have an important role in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular events. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the vascular parameters and sexual satisfaction as established by a questionnaire.
methodsProspective, multicenter analysis of all patients who underwent a PDU between September 2018 and April 2021 in four centers, including patients who were >18 years old and underwent a PDU for ED, Peyronie's disease (PD) or other reasons, signed informed consent and completed an adapted version of the Brief Sexual Symptom Checklist (BSSC). All the patients underwent a standard technique, and from a total of 325 patients, 16 were excluded because of low testosterone levels, and 15 due to missing data.
resultsA total of 294 patients were included for the analysis. Significant differences were found between patients with and without ED defined by their score in the Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) questionnaire in the PSV at 10', adjusted for age (38.07
conclusionsIn our clinical practice we used the cut-off of >35 cm/s, that seems to be quite low looking at our results. The 10' measurement may be more sensitive in order to establish a diagnosis. BSSC questionnaire is a simple, easy-to perform tool to screen those patients at risk of developing sexual dysfunctions.
