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

A triad of unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst and ipsilateral ejaculatory duct obstruction has been called Zinner syndrome since its first description in 1914 by Zinner. It is a very rare congenital abnormality of the male genitourinary tract due to abnormal embryologic development of the Wolffian ducts. There have been several case reports from different parts of the world about the clinical and imaging findings of these anomaly. In this case report, we present the first case report of Zinner syndrome in a 28-year-old male Ethiopian patient.
