Problems related to sexuality are relevant but not addressed in rheumatology practice: results from a cross-sectional survey.
Article in Rheumatology international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sexual issues have a high prevalence in people with rheumatic diseases, but they are not commonly discussed in clinical practice, so we aim to determine the relevance and frequency of addressing problems related to sexuality in Rheumatology clinical practice in Mexico. We obtained data from an electronic survey applied to Mexican physicians involved in Rheumatology practice. The questionnaire was adapted from a previous study. The responses were analyzed and presented with descriptive statistics. We received 75 responses, 52% were from women, with an average age of 35.5 years. Sixty-two (82.6%) participants considered problems related to sexuality as quite relevant to Rheumatology practice, but a lower proportion (10, 13.3%) approach them to the same extent. The main barriers to the management of sexual issues that we recognized were the patient's embarrassment, patient´s age, and time. Most of our participants (62.7%) considered the rheumatologist as responsible for initiating the dialogue about sexual issues. Mexican rheumatologists consider sexual issues as relevant. Further training in sexuality is warranted for health care professionals attending people with rheumatic diseases.
