Angioembolization as the treatment for a misdiagnosed scrotal arteriovenous malformation: A case report and literature review.
Article in Urology 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
Scrotal Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly which presents with swelling, heaviness, pain and bleeding in inguinal and scrotal area and in some cases it may result in azoospermia and infertility. Therefore, this can be misdiagnosed with other usual pathologies of scrotum such as hernia and varicocele. In this study, we present a case of a scrotal AVM which was misdiagnosed as varicocele followed by unnecessary varicocelectomy, after which diagnostic angiography was performed and showed presence of AVM. Accordingly, successful angioembolization was performed for the patient. At the 6-month follow-up, all the symptoms had relieved.
