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
Lengthening corporoplasty is recommended for Peyronie's disease (PD) patients with severe (>60°) or complex curvature and preserved erectile function. This study aimed to evaluate lengthening corporoplasty outcomes using a graft of collagen fleece in Portugal. A multicentric retrospective study included PD patients who underwent the procedure between 2016 and 2024 at four Portuguese hospitals. Among 88 patients, the median age (IQR) was 59.0 (56.0-63.0) years, International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5) score 22.5 (22.0-23.0), stretched penile length (SPL) 13.0 (12.0-14.0) cm, and curvature angle 80.0° (78.8-90.0)°. Dorsal curvature was most common (65.9%) and the median surgery duration was 92.5 (80.0-106.3) min. Early postoperative hematoma occurred in 8.0% of cases, and 2.3% had surgical site infections. No surgical reinterventions were needed. After a median follow-up of 31 months, complications included erectile dysfunction (38.6%), residual curvature (19.3%), reduced penile length (9.1%), penile pain (8.0%), and glans hypoesthesia (5.7%). SPL was 13.8 (12.5-15.0) cm immediately postoperative and 14.0 (13.0-15.0) at 1 month. New-onset erectile dysfunction treatments included phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (34.1%), intracavernous alprostadil (1.1%), and penile prosthesis (3.4%). This study demonstrates effective curvature correction but high rates of postoperative erectile dysfunction, often requiring treatment.
