Classical Seminoma With Secondary Undescended Testis in an Elderly Patient: An Incidental Finding With a Penile Fracture.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cryptorchidism is a common condition among children; however, it is rare in adults and is associated with an increased risk of malignancy. The development of secondary undescended testes is recognized as a complication following inguinal surgeries such as hernia repair and orchidopexy. Herein, we describe the case of a 64-year-old male with a known past surgical history of right indirect inguinal hernia repair complaining of penile swelling. The patient was diagnosed with a penile fracture, and a genital examination further revealed a right undescended testis. The patient underwent penile fracture repair and right orchiectomy. Histopathology examinations showed classic seminoma. These findings show that the position of each testis should always be documented before, during, and after inguinal hernia repair due to the increased risk of undescended testis. Histopathological confirmation is necessary for such patients so that malignancy can be identified in its early stages and cured subsequently.
