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
Introduction: The prostatitis syndrome is one of the most common entities encountered in urologic practice. One of the most common problems that patients with chronic prostatitis typically face is sexual dysfunction. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in patients with chronic prostatitis. Methods: The present study is a cross-sectional study on 400 patients aged 18 to 50 years who were treated for chronic prostatitis and for whom more than three months had passed since the onset of their prostatitis and treatment. The patients were included in the study through a census. The Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire Short Form (CSFQ-14) was used to assess the sexual functioning status of the patients. Result: In this study, a total of 400 patients who had referred to the medical centers and hospitals affiliated with Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in 2024 due to chronic prostatitis were examined. The mean age of the patients was 40.83 ± 8.77. The mean sexual function score among patients with chronic prostatitis was 35.62 ± 8, with 89.2% of these individuals exhibiting signs of sexual dysfunction. Based on the results of this study, there was a significant relationship between sexual dysfunction and the type of relationship with the spouse ( Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, sexual dysfunction is a common complication in men with chronic prostatitis. Most patients had a cold and weak relationship with their spouse.
