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
introductionFractional CO
methodsThis was a single-site, non-randomized, open-label study using a fractional CO
resultsFive patients were included in the study. The median baseline penile curvature was 37.0° (interquartile range [IQR] 33.0°, 53.0°), and at 52 weeks, this had reduced to a median curvature of 28.0° (IQR 17.50°, 44.0°, p=0.03), representing a median reduction in penile curvature by 24.3% (IQR 17.0%, 47.5%). The International Index of Erectile Function Overall scores were comparable at baseline and at 52 weeks (median 59.0, IQR 42.5, 66.5 vs. median 60.0, IQR 53.5, 70.0 respectively, p=0.81). Patients did report significant improvement in overall Peyronies' Disease Questionnaire scores from baseline to 52 weeks after laser treatment (median 26.0, IQR15.0, 29.5, vs. median 14.0, IQR 7.0, 22.50, respectively, p=0.03). Four patients reported self-limiting side effects immediately after laser therapy that resolved spontaneously within two weeks.
