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

Background: As a new ultrasound technology, 2-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) can evaluate the elastic characteristics of penile tissue. However, no studies have reported the main factors affecting the shear wave elastic quantitative measurement (SWQ) in penile tissue. Objectives: To analyze the main factors affecting the SWQ reflecting the elastic characteristics of penile tissue by 2D-SWE. Methods: Twenty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats (5-60 weeks old) were selected for this study. We performed the 2D-SWE examination on the penis using the Aixplorer ultrasound system, with SWQ as the measurement index. We performed penile immunohistochemistry analysis with the positive area proportion (PAP) of alpha-smooth muscle actin (PAP Results: The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the linear regression equation (SWQ = 10.376 - 0.05 PAP Conclusions: SMCs and collagen fibers are the main factors affecting the SWQ value of penile tissue and the primary tissue components determining the SWQ when using 2D-SWE to quantitatively evaluate the elastic characteristics of penile tissue.
