Suprapubic Liposuction With a Modified Devine's Technique for Buried Penis Release in Adults.
Article in Plastic surgery (Oakville, Ont.), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundWith the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity, adult-acquired buried penis is more common in recent years. Many surgical techniques have been reported. However, none is the gold standard.
objectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining suprapubic liposuction and modified Devine's technique for penile lengthening in adult patients with buried penis due to obesity.
methodsFrom September 2015 to June 2018, 26 consecutive suitable patients (mean age: 33 ± 5.7 years, mean body mass index: 29 ± 5.4 kg/m
resultsThe mean length of the follow-up on the 26 patients is 18 ± 7.1 months (range 3-33 months). The average amount of liposuction is 450 ± 90.2 mL. The average penile length measured preoperatively, post-operatively (on table), and 3 months after the operation is 2.9 ± 1.3, 7.4 ± 2.1, and 5.3 ± 1.8 cm, respectively. The post-operative penile length had significantly increased by 4.5 ± 1.6 cm (on table) and 2.4 ± 0.7 cm (3 months post-operation) with a
conclusionsThe combination of suprapubic liposuction and modified Devine's technique is a safe and effective method for releasing the buried penis of adults with satisfying outcomes.
