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

backgroundTesticular torsion is an emergent disease in urology, and there has been discussion of the treatment of testicular torsion. Testicular decompression has been established as a critical treatment for testicular compartment syndrome (TCS), which occurs after detorsion in a patient who is diagnosed with testis torsion. Until now, testicular fasciotomy and incision of tunica albuginea with tunica vaginalis flap (TVF) graft have been suggested for decompression, and some studies about the efficacy of TVF were reported. However, this method is time consuming and needs meticulous technique, so other methods such as orchio-septopexy are suggested. The objective of this clinical case report was to propose new surgical method using collagen fleece (Tachosil CASE SUMMARY: A 5-year-old boy with scrotal pain visited our hospital 24 h after symptom onset. After history taking, physical examination, and scrotum ultrasonography, he was diagnosed with testis torsion. Emergency surgery was performed after diagnosis. Following the incision of scrotum and fasciotomy, we covered his tunica albuginea with collagen fleece called Tachosil

conclusionShort-term follow-up showed normal blood flow in testis without a TCS. This is the first case report of using Tachosil
