Comparison of a modified Mogen clamp and classic dorsal slit circumcision under local anesthesia: A clinical study.
Article in Current urology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Currently, although various methods are used, there is no gold standard method for circumcision. Therefore, we developed a modified circumcision clamp inspired by the Mogen clamp suitable for circumcisions performed under local anesthesia in our country. To evaluate its success and complications, we compared our modified Mogen clamp with a dorsal slit circumcision. Materials and methods: From 2013 to 2017, we retrospectively evaluated 1309 patients who had undergone circumcision; of these, 832 used the modified Mogen clamp method (Group 1) and 477 used the dorsal slit method (Group 2). The patients' age, surgery duration, minor hemorrhage (not requiring suture or repeated surgical exploration after circumcision but with buffer or clotting solution used), major hemorrhage (hemorrhage requiring suture or exploration), redundant prepuce skin remnants, revision numbers, and family satisfaction values were evaluated and compared between the 2 groups. Results: Patients were assessed at least 3 times: 1day, 1week, and 1month after circumcision. The mean ages in Groups 1 and 2 were 16.5±22.8 versus 15.5±18.8 months, respectively. The surgical procedure durations were 9.2±1.7 and 15.4±2.5 minutes in Groups 1 and 2, respectively ( Conclusion: Under local anesthesia, the circumcision procedure with the modified Mogen clamp can be performed more rapidly than with the dorsal slit, and the cosmetic results are better as the incision line is more regular. All postoperative complications were similar, with problems related to redundant skin occurring more frequently with clamp circumcision.
