Climacturia: what treatment options do we offer to those with and without concomitant erectile dysfunction?
Review in International journal of impotence research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer carries many sequelae, including climacturia, which is not commonly discussed and often under-recognized. To better understand treatment options for incontinence and climacturia, as well as those at time of penile implantation surgery, we completed a comprehensive literature review to identify nonoperative and operative treatments for patients with climacturia alone and those with concomitant climacturia and erectile dysfunction. Nonoperative interventions include behavioral modifications, physical therapy, and tension loops. Operative interventions include the artificial urinary sphincter, male urethral slings, Mini-Jupette sling, and a periurethral prosthesis. We also explore options that can be offered to patients who are also in need of penile prosthesis for concomitant erectile dysfunction. Contemporary work suggests that synchronous implantation of certain devices to treat both climacturia and erectile dysfunction can be done with proven safety and efficacy.
