Discontinuous Splenogonadal Fusion: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Splenogonadal fusion (SGF) is a rare congenital anomaly in which accessory splenic tissue fuses with the testis during gestation. SGF is classified into continuous and discontinuous types, depending on the presence or absence of an anatomical connection between the native spleen and the gonads. Due to its uncommon presentation, SGF can easily mislead clinicians, potentially resulting in unnecessary orchiectomy. In this case report, a 27-year-old male presented with a progressive, painless left scrotal mass for one year, noted on self-examination, and had a history of primary infertility and varicocele. A left orchiectomy was performed, and histopathologic examination confirmed the discontinuous type of SGF.
