May-Thurner Syndrome Causing Unilateral Varicocele Treated With Endovascular Embolization.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
May-Thurner syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by the right common iliac artery overlies and compresses the left common iliac vein against the lumbar spine with or without iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis (DVT). The majority of cases are female and have been associated with the development of vulvar varicosities, particularly during pregnancy. Interestingly and very rarely, this condition has also been identified as a potential cause of varicoceles in males. This is a unique case of a 22-year-old man who had a varicocele secondary to May-Thurner syndrome, successfully treated through endovascular embolization.
