Article in Prostate international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Materials and methods: From November 2020 to January 2022, participants with International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) of 12-19 in two centers were recruited and randomize into three groups: a CAG 500 mg/day group (CAG 500), a CAG 1000 mg/day group (CAG 1000), and a placebo group (PG). They were treated for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was change of IPSS at the end of study from baseline. Secondary end points included change of prostate specific antigen (PSA), testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), maximum urinary flow rate (Q max), post-void residual volume (PVR), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), and drug safety. Results: A total of 103 patients were able to finish the study according to the study protocol. Total IPSS and sub-scores (residual urine sensation, frequency, weak stream, hesistancy, nocturia, and quality of life) in CAG 500 and CAG 1000 were significantly improved at the 12 Conclusions: CAG is well tolerated in patients with moderate LUTS. Treatment with CAG for 12 weeks has a therapeutic effect on moderate LUTS.
