1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) is a rare Testicular neoplasm found in elderly patients. Imaging features in PTL presenting with contiguous involvement of spermatic cord and extension along gonadal vein have been rarely detailed before. We describe a case of a 50-year-old male who presented with complaints of scrotal swelling and abdominal discomfort. Imaging, which included Ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced computed tomography of chest-abdomen, showed features of aggressive-looking bilateral testicular mass lesions with the distinctive feature of contiguous spread along the spermatic cord and gonadal vein till retroperitoneum and disseminated chest and abdominal metastases. The distinctive feature of contiguous extension along the spermatic cord and gonadal vein can help suggest a diagnosis of PTL on imaging.
