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
objectivesThe objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of single-stage anterior urethroplasty on sexual function by considering age, stricture length, location, and different surgical techniques. Incidence of postoperative sexual dysfunction (SD) and probability of recovery were also highlighted. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 115 patients undergoing anterior urethroplasty from February 2016 to June 2020 were evaluated prospectively. Patients were categorized on the basis of age, location, length of stricture as well as surgical techniques. We evaluated three domains of sexual function (erectile, orgasmic, and overall satisfaction) using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) preoperatively and then after 3 months and 6 months postoperatively in follow-up. Pre- and postoperative IIEF values were compared.
resultsThe mean age was 41.7 ± 13.9 years. There was a significant decrease in postoperative IIEF score from the preoperative value in older patients (>40 years) along with poor recovery at the 6
conclusionOverall, anterior urethroplasty does not influence postoperative sexual function, whereas only older patients have a poor outcome. Most of the younger patients recover completely by 6 months.
