Long-standing aggressive angiomyxoma as a paratesticular mass: A case report and review of literature.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectivesAggressive angiomyxoma is known as a mesenchymal tumor of premenopausal women and it is extremely rare in men.
methodsHerein, we report a 66-year-old male with a firm scrotal mass that had gradually enlarged over 20 years.
resultsRadiological studies revealed 10 x 15 cm mass lesion confined to right scrotum with neither local invasion nor distant metastasis. Inguinal orchiectomy was performed and histopathology showed characteristic features of an aggressive angiomyxoma occupying paratesticular region, which was a challenging diagnosis due to its unexpected occurrence in the male gender.
conclusionAggressive angiomyxoma is mostly considered as a benign tumor in females despite its propensity for local recurrence. Whether it may show a divergent biological behavior in men is unknown as the reported cases are too few.
