Primary high-grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the glans penis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the penis is a rare haematological malignancy, with less than 30 cases being reported in the literature. Our case mentions a 57-year-old man who presented with a penile lesion that was diagnosed as DLBCL on histological biopsy. Targeted investigation and proper diagnosis are essential to distinguish it from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the glans, which presents similarly. Since guidelines are not available, the author compared different management mentioned in case reports and the outcome was noted. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery were the treatment modalities most used; out of which, chemotherapy had the most successful outcome. On the other hand, surgery is the preferred modality in SCC of the penis. This further consolidates the need for guidelines with regard to proper diagnosis and management of this malignancy.
