Intralesional and topical treatments for Peyronie's disease: a narrative review of current knowledge.
Review in Asian journal of andrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
abstractPeyronie's disease (PD) presents a multifaceted challenge in contemporary urological practice, marked by penile deformity, pain, and the potential for erectile dysfunction. We meticulously explored the existing literature of intralesional/topical interventions, aiming to provide clinicians with a nuanced understanding of available options for comprehensive PD management. To conduct this review, we performed a systematic search using the PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect databases, including the keywords of combination of the "Peyronie's disease/plastic induration of the penis (PIP) and intralesional/topical treatments". The study selection was based on adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, resulting in the inclusion of 16 articles. We delve into the effectiveness and safety profiles of collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH), interferon, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), hyaluronic acid, botulinum toxin, stem cell, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), and traction therapy, assessing their impact on penile curvature, length improvement, and patient-reported symptoms and outcomes. The best options evaluated are intralesional injections of CCH and penile traction devices, alone or in combination. Despite PD remains a challenge for urologists, the objective of this review is to contribute to the evolving landscape of PD management, fostering informed decision-making, and personalized care for individuals grappling with this challenging condition.
