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

Testicular germ cell tumors are generally rare but represent the most common solid neoplasms in young men. They are subdivided into seminomas and non-seminomatous germ cell tumors. Usually the diagnosis of a seminoma is straightforward due to the characteristic morphology, although problems in differential diagnosis can occur because of unusual histological growth patterns. This article describes the challenging differential diagnosis with respect to seminomas versus non-seminomatous germ cell tumors, sex cord stromal tumors, lymphomas and non-neoplastic conditions, such as scars and inflammatory changes. In addition, prognostic factors for seminomas are presented and discussed.
