Erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease diagnosis rates after penile fracture-a retrospective claims database cohort analysis.
Article in International journal of impotence research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Our objective was to analyze the rates of erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease following a penile fracture using a large, multi-institutional claims database. Inclusion criteria included men ages 15 or older with a diagnosis of penile fracture and any office visit within 5 years of the penile fracture. Exclusion criteria included prior erectile dysfunction, prescription of erectile aids, or penile prosthesis placement. Our primary outcome was the diagnosis of erectile dysfunction or prescription of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors within 5 years. A secondary analysis assessed rates of Peyronie's disease following penile fracture. 1242 men were identified with penile fracture and subsequently matched to men without penile fracture, resulting in equal cohorts of 1227 men. Men with a history of penile fracture were more likely to receive a diagnosis of erectile dysfunction or require phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (RR 3.18, 95% CI: 2.30-4.40). Men who did not undergo immediate repair had higher rates of erectile dysfunction or treatment (RR: 1.84, 95% CI: 1.22-2.78). Men over the age of 45 years who had a penile fracture were more likely to develop erectile dysfunction or treatment compared to men under 45 years (RR: 1.65, 95% CI: 1.14-2.39). Rates of Peyronie's disease were higher in men with a history of penile fracture (5.8% vs 0%, p < 0.0001). Rates of Peyronie's disease were lower if immediate repair of the fracture was performed (RR: 0.20, 95% CI: 0.10-0.41). Men over the age of 45 years with penile fracture were more likely to develop Peyronie's Disease within 5 years compared to men under the age of 45 years penile fracture (RR: 3.72, 95% CI: 1.94-7.16). Penile fracture increases the risk of both erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease, especially those treated with conservative measures or over the age of 45 years compared to patients under 45 years with a penile fracture.
