Bilateral intra-abdominal testicular tumor: Case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionBilateral intra-abdominal testis is a very rare clinical entity. These testes may develop cancer in an adult patient with empty scrotum. CASE PRESENTATION: A case of a huge intra-abdominal solid mass in a 32-year-old gentleman is presented. Physical examination revealed an empty scrotum. Laboratory investigations, imaging studies, laparotomy and histopathological examination showed that the solid mass was a mixed germ cell tumor of the left testis. The contra-lateral testis also had a tumor. Resection of the solid mass and contra-lateral orchiectomy was performed. Adjuvant chemotherapy was given. Six months after surgery, his follow-up parameters were all within normal limits. DISCUSSION: Since bilateral intra-abdominal testis tumor is a very rare clinical entity, there are no patient management guidelines available. Management strategies differ significantly among groups and they are based mainly on the experience reflected in the context of anecdotal case reports.
conclusionSurgical exploration and adjuvant chemotherapy seems as a reasonable treatment option in the setting of bilateral intra-abdominal testis tumor in an adult patient.
