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 captive adult male giant panda (Guangzhou Chimelong Safari Park, CHINA) presented with azoospermia and enlarged left testicle. A tentative diagnosis of testicular neoplasia was made, and confirmed as testicular seminoma cases by testicular ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), testicular biopsy, and tumor marker examination findings. Based on the diagnostic results, the treatment of choice was surgical resection of the testicular tumor under general anesthesia. And the histopathological findings of the excised neoplasm were consistent with those of testicular seminoma. In addition, no tumor recurrence was observed after surgery, which indicates that our surgical and post-operative treatments were effective. The surgical treatment adopted in this case report is safe for patients and provides the best solution for the diagnosis and treatment of giant panda testicular seminoma. To our knowledge this is the first detailed report of surgical resection of testicular seminoma in the giant panda.
