BCG orchitis.
Article in Urology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intravesical immunotherapy with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin has been shown to decrease tumor recurrence and progression in urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Its ubiquitous use is further substantiated by its low rates of complications. Our patient is a 63 year old male with a circuitous medical course who presents with epididymoorchitis and scrotal abscess after his second three week cycle of maintenance BCG prompting scrotal exploration which revealed a non-viable testicle and large scrotal induration with abscess. Pathological analysis and initial cultures were negative for mycobacterium but acid-fast cultures eventually demonstrated mycobacterium three months later.
