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

backgroundThousands of papers on testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) have been published over the past two decades. This study aimed to assess the key topics and future trends in TGCT research from a comprehensive perspective.

methodsAll literature defined as review and article type on TGCT published between 2000 and 2020 was identified and retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. Bibliometric analysis was conducted by the online analysis platform and VOSviewer (version 1.6.16). The key directions and future trends in the research field of TGCT were evaluated using Bibliographic Item Co-occurrence Matrix Builder (version 2.0) and gCLUTO software.

resultsUltimately, a total of 4,550 papers between 2000 and 2020 were included in the field of TGCT. The leadership of the United States in global TGCT research with 1,549 publications during the last two decades was obvious. The Indiana University was the most productive institution with 360 publications, and it was also the institution most frequently involved in research cooperation.

conclusionsDuring the last two decades, the United States was a global leader, and research hotspots included epidemiology, male infertility, pathology, and therapy in the field of TGCT. Furthermore, the genetics mechanisms and cisplatin resistance will remain hotspots in future TGCT research.
