Mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in treating erectile dysfunction: A review.
Review in Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common and serious condition. As people's lifestyles change and the aging of the population, the incidence of ED is increasing. traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has long been a traditional clinical approach for treating ED in China and has been shown to be effective and safe. A large amount of studies on TCM for ED have revealed various therapeutic mechanisms; however, few reviews have summarized the TCM therapeutic mechanisms currently available for the treatment of ED. Therefore, a systematic analysis of the therapeutic mechanisms of TCM is of great academic and clinical value. Summarizing the molecular mechanisms of TCM for ED from multiple directions enriches the theory of TCM for ED and establishes the clinical significance and development prospect of TCM for ED. It provides basic theoretical support for the discovery and utilization of TCM resources, and provides up-to-date and comprehensive insights into the clinical application of TCM for the treatment of ED. This knowledge may pave the way for the development of more effective drugs and methods.
