[Penile paraffinoma-Treatment strategies].
Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPenile paraffinomas are a consequence of an injection of mineral oils for augmentation. As an result of the foreign body reaction local complications regularly occur, which require a plastic reconstructive intervention. So far 8 cases have been treated in our clinic over the last 20 years.
objectivePresentation of the operative treatment techniques for penile paraffinoma as well as the indications and complications. MATERIAL AND
methodsAfter reviewing the relevant literature, we analyzed the data of our own patient cohort. Since 1999 a total of 8 patients with lipogranuloma underwent surgical treatment at the St. Antonius Hospital in Eschweiler.
resultsThe choice of a plastic reconstructive treatment depends on the extent of the paraffinoma. If it is limited to the foreskin, a radical circumcision is sufficient but if it extends to the skin of the penile shaft, a plastic defect coverage with a mesh graft, a full skin graft or a scrotal skin flap is required. In cases with additional pathologies, such as urethral fistulas, auxiliary reconstructive procedures should be performed.
conclusionFor optimal cosmetic and functional results, the surgeon must master a broad spectrum of plastic reconstructive techniques. In selected complex cases an interdisciplinary approach consisting of urologists and plastic surgeons can be necessary.
