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

purposeProstate Cancer (PCa) is the most common non-cutaneous cancer in males, and Radical Prostatectomy (RP) is among the primary treatments for this condition. Our study aims to investigate the prevalence of climacturia (urine leakage at the moment of the climax), a potential post-RP change related to orgasm. MATERIAL AND

methodsA systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines and registered on the PROSPERO platform. The search was performed using MEDLINE via PubMed.

resultsThirteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were described separately. Within these studies, 5,208 patients were evaluated, among which 1,417 cases of climacturia were identified, with a prevalence of 27.2%. When we analyzed the robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) subgroup, the prevalence of climacturia was 5.7% vs 1.8% the open radical prostatectomy (ORP) subgroup.

conclusionClimacturia is a frequently underestimated complication by urologists. Given its significant impact on quality of life, it warrants greater attention from specialists following RP.
