Ultrasound of a patient with penetrating scrotal trauma: finding a needle in a haystack.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We present a case of a 27-year-old man who referred to the Emergency Department complaining scrotal pain. He mentioned a sharp penetrating scrotal trauma occurred at work. Clinical examination showed mild scrotal tenderness. The patient underwent scrotal ultrasound that showed only a suspicious foreign body in the tunica vaginalis. A scrotal surgical exploration was performed and a nail was confirmed at the level of the tunica vaginalis.
