Penile Fracture with Complete Urethral Rupture and Urine Extravasation: A Case Report.

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
Penile fracture is a rare traumatic injury of an erect phallus involving mainly the tissues responsible for penile erection, corpora cavernosa, and penile sheath, which occur commonly, but not solely during vigorous sexual intercourse. Here, we present a 34-year-old man who presented with a 5-h history of snapping sound heard during sexual intercourse with subsequent loss of tumescence, swelling of the phallus, and assumption of abnormal contour, scrotal swelling, and lower anterior abdominal swelling. On examination, the patient was in severe painful distress with swelling around the external genitalia and lower abdomen and dorsolateral penile angulation with marked tenderness. The diagnosis of penile fracture was made; intraoperatively, there was a complete rupture of both corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum, complete disruption of the urethra, and buck's fascia tear causing haematoma and urine extravasation into the scrotum and anterior abdominal wall. The patient had haematoma evacuation, corpora repair, and urethroplasty done, did well, and has been on follow-up for 2 years with good erectile and voiding functions.
