[Diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of testicular cancer].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTesticular cancer is a disease of young adult men, and it is curable in most cases. Even in advanced disease, cure rates reach 80 % nowadays. This was achieved by consistently performing studies concerning the different stages of disease. TREATMENT AND FOLLOW-UP CARE: The concept of treatment is interdisciplinary. After removal of the affected testis, histology and stage determine further therapy, which can be active surveillance, polychemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, or a combination of these. Curability also has consequences for the long-term follow-up. We speak about long-term survivorship. Besides looking for recurrences, it is also necessary to observe and treat long-term toxicities caused by the different therapeutic procedures.
conclusionBecause testicular cancer is rare with about 4500 cases annually, treatment-especially for advanced disease-should be performed at centers. In addition, it is possible to obtain a second opinion using the Interdisciplinary German Testicular Study Group website.
