Acute Testicular Ischaemia Following Endovascular Aneurysm Repair on the Opposite Side to Intentional Internal Iliac Artery Occlusion.
Article in EJVES short reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionTesticular ischaemia is a potential complication after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), which has only rarely been reported in the literature. This is the report of a patient who presented with acute testicular ischaemia in the immediate post-EVAR period. REPORT: A 65 year old patient underwent EVAR for an aortic and bilateral iliac aneurysms. During the procedure, the right internal iliac artery was intentionally occluded to facilitate treatment of the common iliac aneurysm; however, the left internal iliac artery was preserved. The procedure was uneventful. On the second post-operative day the patient gradually developed symptoms of acute left testicular ischaemia. Clinical and ultrasonographic findings constituted the bases of diagnosis and the patient received conservative treatment with gradual improvement. To the authors' knowledge, this is the ninth case of testicular ischaemia after endovascular aneurysm repair reported in the literature.
conclusionTesticular ischaemia, although rare, is a possible complication post-EVAR. Acute and chronic testicular damage found in association with an abdominal aortic aneurysm or its treatment has not been well studied in the literature and therefore may be under reported.
