A case at crossroads-urological presentation, cardiac complication and haematological diagnosis: should imaging be pursued prior to orchidectomy at all costs?
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2021. 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
This case report explores the interesting case of a 71-year-old gentleman who presented with a testicular lump following trauma. Ultrasound imaging of the testicle demonstrated malignancy and subsequently orchidectomy was listed. Due to a scheduling difficulty, this was prioritized ahead of his whole-body computed tomography scan. Intraoperatively, he developed electrocardiogram changes suggestive of a non-ST elevated myocardial infarction. Post-operative imaging demonstrated a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma encroaching the heart and greater vessels. This case report highlights the importance of preoperative imaging, even where it may prove challenging. We assess the adequacy of current guidelines within the UK on imaging for new testicular malignancies.
