Genital infection from Monkeypox virus requiring surgical debridement and scrotoplasty in an immunocompromised patient.
Article in Urology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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: Mpox is a zoonotic viral disease transmitted by close contact with infected individuals, contacting or eating infected animals, and now, sexual contact. The main treatment option for infected individuals is supportive care as no FDA-approved treatment exists. Case presentation: A 33-year-old male with HIV who contracted Mpox who developed a large painful genital ulcer with overlying eschar. He required surgical debridement of the penile ulcer followed by scrotoplasty. Conclusion: While local wound care plus antibiotics may be effective at managing some genital lesions, Urologists should consider surgical debridement with delayed reconstruction for progressive, non-healing wounds in these individuals.
