Relative Fat Mass, A Better Predictor of Erectile Dysfunction: Insights From the NHANES 2001-2004.
Article in American journal of men's health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Obesity is a significant factor contributing to erectile dysfunction (ED). Early detection of ED generally results in improved treatment outcomes. Our study aims to elucidate the association between relative fat mass (RFM) and ED by analyzing data from the National Health and Nutrition Inspection Survey (NHANES) spanning 2001 to 2004. We used data from NHANES 2001-2004, employing weighted, multivariable-adjusted logistic regression to assess the relationship between RFM and the risk of ED. Additional analyses included subgroup analysis, smooth curve fitting, and threshold effect analysis. Subsequently, the predictive utility of RFM, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) for ED was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) calculations. A total of 3,947 American male participants were included in this retrospective study within NHANES. Weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that, after adjusting for potential confounding factors, RFM was positively associated with the risk of ED (OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.01-1.05,
