Metastatic seminoma presenting as neck and axillary lymphadenopathy in an elderly man.

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
A man in his 60s presented with a gradual progressive right-sided neck mass. Initial core biopsy was inconclusive and he was treated with a short course of oral prednisone for presumed sarcoidosis. Two months later, the patient developed worsening dysphagia, hoarseness of voice, dyspnea, and weight loss. Physical examination revealed bilateral cervical and right axillary lymphadenopathy. A right axillary lymph node excisional biopsy was performed and immunohistochemistry was diffusely positive for OCT4, SALL4, CD117, PLAP, confirming the diagnosis of metastatic seminoma. He received three cycles of bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin; bleomycin was omitted for the fourth cycle due to concern for toxicity. Restaging scans after four cycles of chemotherapy showed a favorable response to therapy. Unfortunately, the patient died from bleomycin pulmonary toxicity. This case illustrates a rare and atypical presentation of metastatic seminoma in an elderly patient.
