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

Introduction: The histological types of urethral cancer are mainly squamous cell or transitional cell carcinoma. Neuroendocrine tumor is extremely a rare type of urethral cancer. Case presentation: A 72-year-old man visited with an erythema at the external urethral meatus. After 3 months, a 1-cm reddish solid tumor was found on the external urethral meatus. He had a history of bladder cancer (pTa with carcinoma in situ), including the prostatic urethra, and underwent radical cystectomy with urethrectomy and ileal conduit construction 11 years ago. After 3 months, a 1-cm reddish solid tumor was found on the external urethral meatus. The pathological diagnosis was a neuroendocrine tumor. Partial penectomy was performed. Conclusion: Small cell neuroendocrine tumor could occur on urethral remnant after radical cystectomy with urethrectomy for urothelial cancer. Inspection of the penis and urethral meatus is important during regular follow-up of patients after radical cystectomy.
