Paratesticular Serous Papillary Carcinoma of High Grade and Malignant Potential: A Rare Case with a Role for Adjuvant Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Paratesticular serous papillary carcinomas are very rare, with less than 40 cases reported in the literature. These neoplasms are Müllerian in origin, and more commonly seen as epithelial-type ovarian cancer. Given the rarity of this tumor in men, staging and recommended treatment options do not exist. Herein, we present the case of a 35-year-old male with high-grade invasive serous papillary carcinoma. He was diagnosed after left radical orchiectomy for paratesticular mass and subsequently treated with adjuvant chemotherapy according to existing recommendations for its ovarian counterpart. Chemotherapy was well tolerated and surveillance imaging has shown no evidence of disease. This case suggests a potential role for adjuvant therapy in patients with high-grade paratesticular serous papillary carcinoma.
