Early penile-only metastasis of urothelial bladder carcinoma.
Article in Future science OA, 2020. 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
Penile metastasis rarely occurs as a unique and early distant recurrence of urothelial bladder carcinoma. A 77-year-old male underwent a radical cystoprostatecomy for a pT3a urothelial bladder cancer. Preoperative imaging workup concluded to a disease confined to the bladder. The patient consulted 5 months later for a penile induration. Computed tomography imaging revealed a suspicious penile nodule with no other nodal or visceral lesion. Total penectomy after a confirmatory biopsy confirmed the infiltration of the corpora cavernosa, the corpus spongiosum and the urethra by a urothelial metastasis of bladder cancer. Distant recurrences after radical surgery for locally advanced bladder cancer may occur as a unique early metastasis located to the penis.
