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

Vaso-occlusive crisis is a sequela of sickle cell disease that can lead to severe pain and infarction at the location of occlusion. In men, genitourinary complications include priapism, hematuria, and very rarely, testicular infarction. Few cases have been previously reported in the literature, but in all of those cases, partial or complete orchiectomy was performed. We report the first known case of segmental testicular infarct secondary to sickle cell disease treated with medical management without need for surgical intervention.
