Treatment of recurrent priapism using proximal shunt: Quackles technique.
Article in IJU case reports, 2025. 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
Introduction: Recurrent priapism is a rare variant of ischemic priapism that involves recurrent erections typically lasting less than 4 h. The primary goal of treatment is to prevent future episodes, with options ranging from pharmacological treatments to various surgeries. Case presentation: A 38-year-old man experienced multiple episodes of priapism that were refractory to angioembolization of an arteriocavernous fistula and oral treatment with Cetirizine and Bicalutamide. After the patient refused intracavernous self-injections, various surgical options were considered. Ultimately, a proximal penile shunt surgery with a cavernosal-spongiosal shunt using the Quackles technique was chosen, which proved effective in preventing episodes and did not affect the patient's erectile function. Conclusion: Penile shunt surgery using the Quackles proximal technique is a safe and effective option for the treatment of recurrent priapism.
