Testicular tuberculosis: An uncommon complication after treatment of urothelial carcinoma.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. 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
Tuberculous epididymo-orchitis is an uncommon complication after intravesical bacilli Calmette-Guerin therapy for nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer. Spread of granulomatous disease through the genitourinary tract specifically to the testes occurs in 0.4% of treated patients. The following case presents a 77-year-old man who underwent intravesical therapy after transurethral resection of bladder tumor and developed testicular discomfort and a palpable mass 2 years after initiation of therapy. After wide range of serum and urine analyses, repeated testicular ultrasonography, and an unsuccessful course of antibiotics, the patient elected to undergo orchiectomy and was confirmed to have tuberculous epididymo-orchitis. Diagnosis based on imaging and laboratory serum and urine analysis may be elusive and therefore review of this entity and associated sonographic findings is discussed.
