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

Background: Penile cancer is a rare malignancy treated via various surgical techniques guided by disease stage and grade with current guidelines suggesting partial or total penectomy for those with pT2 or greater. We report a case of a patient with pT2 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis who underwent circumcision with left partial-glansectomy and Case Description: An 82-year-old male presented to the clinic due to a mass that doubled in size in an 8-month timeframe. Treatment options were discussed with the patient including the risks and benefits of each electing wide-excision in glans-sparing fashion, possible partial penectomy. Given the possibility of low-grade verrucous carcinoma upon intraoperative exploration, ultimately, circumcision with left partial-glansectomy and Conclusions: Careful case selection with close postoperative follow-up monitoring for local recurrences, such as in this case, can allow patients to elect for organ-sparing partial glansectomy-when complete resection is feasible-as an acceptable option for oncological control in patients with pT2 penile cancer while providing good urinary and sexual function.
