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: Postoperative recurrence of seminoma is often seen in lungs, liver, and retroperitoneal lymph nodes, such as the para-aortic lymph nodes. Most of these recurrences (>90%) occur in the first 3 years after orchiectomy. We report a case of a single recurrence in the seminal vesicle after bilateral radical orchiectomies for metachronous bilateral testicular seminoma. Case presentation: A 52-year-old patient with a past history of bilateral testicular seminoma was diagnosed with left seminal vesicle metastasis by magnetic resonance imaging followed by needle biopsy 8 years after the first orchiectomy. After four cycles of bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin regimen were administered, FDG-18 positron emission tomography-computed tomography showed no abnormal signal in the left seminal vesicle. Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of seminal vesicle metastasis following radical orchiectomies for bilateral testicular seminoma.
