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

Neurogenic sexual dysfunction (NSD) is a common problem in patients after spinal and pelvic trauma. New treatment is needed beyond medicine or psychological therapies. A 24-year-old man who fell from a six-floor building suffered from subsequent NSD. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was the only method used to treat his NSD caused by multiple spinal and pelvic injuries. The therapy lasted for 3 courses. Motor and sensory conduction, as well as sexual function, were evaluated before and after the rTMS intervention. Improvements on patient's nerve conduction and sexual activity were confirmed at a 1-year follow-up. Our findings indicate that rTMS delivered a novel, positive and low-cost modality treatment to the patient with NSD. Clinical efficacy and potential mechanisms by which rTMS regulate NSD need to be investigated by further clinical trials.
