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

In developing/underdeveloped countries there is still a great burden of adverse drug reaction (ADR), morbidity and mortality because of poor regulations and implementation of preventive measures. These countries try to copy/follow guidelines from international bodies like American Urology Association (AUA), European Association of Urology (EAU), AGS, UMC and WHO irrespective of their country of origin and success in implementation. Although recommendations of these organizations are obligatory, yet these are taken as the gold standard for good clinical practices. This manuscript highlights difference in view point of various apex health organizations in formulating health policies for prevention, diagnosis, treatment and ADR monitoring for urological disorders. Lacking role of regulatory bodies in implementation of existing policies may lead to potentially inappropriate medication and produce a great economic burden. This analysis has prompted us to recommend that these apex bodies should have better coordination in producing a single value document, make it mandatory part of curricula in medical schools for better awareness, awareness campaigns and separate reporting column in ADR form.
