Glans ischemia in a 7-month-old boy who underwent correction of megaprepuce: case report and review of the literature.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 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
Acute glans ischemia is a severe complication that can occur after penile surgery, such as circumcision, hypospadias repair, or disassembly of the corpora in epispadias. This rare condition is described in the current literature, especially after circumcision, although it is the less invasive procedure among those previously mentioned. We present a case of 7-month-old boy who developed glans ischemia after correction of megaprepuce. The condition was treated by intravenous unfractionated heparin. In our case, the complication of ischemia was complete dehiscence of the suture line at the coronal sulcus. Glans penis recovered completely and secondary intention wound healing occurred within 4 weeks. We reviewed the literature over the past 43 years (1981-2023) to describe the current options of surveillance, treatment, and outcome of glans ischemia after penile surgery in boys.
