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

A rare triad of Wolffian duct anomaly known as Zinner syndrome includes unilateral renal agenesis with ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst and ejaculatory duct obstruction. It is often diagnosed in third and fourth decades of life. Patient presents with dysuria, perineal pain, infertility and painful ejaculation. The aim of this case report is to show the importance of the radiological imaging on diagnosis of Zinner syndrome. MRI being the modality of the choice for the confirmation of the diagnosis is vital in further management of the syndrome.
