Globozoospermia: A Case Report and Systematic Review of Literature.
Article in The world journal of men's health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
purposeGlobozoospermia is a genetic syndrome characterized by the presence of round-headed spermatozoa and infertility due to the inability of these spermatozoa to fertilize the oocyte. In this article, we present the clinical case of a young globozoospermic patient with a new, not yet described mutation of the MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed a systematic search in the PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases from their inception to December 2021. The search strategy included the combination of the following Medical Subjects Headings (MeSH) terms and keywords: "globozoospermia", "round-headed spermatozoa", "round head spermatozoa", "intracytoplasmic sperm injection", "ICSI", "offspring", "child health", "assisted reproductive technique outcome". All the eligible studies were selected following the PECOS (Population, Exposure, Comparison/Comparator, Outcomes, Study design) model. The quality of included studies was assessed by applying the "Cambridge Quality Checklists".
resultsThe main genes involved in the pathogenesis of globozoospermia are
conclusionsThis systematic review summarizes the evidence on the gene panel to be evaluated, ICSI outcomes, and the health of the offspring in patients with globozoospermia. Evidence-based recommendations on the management of patients with globozoospermia are provided.
