Bilateral High Intra-Abdominal Testes Successfully Treated With Multistage Fowler-Stephens Orchiopexy to Preserve Testicular Function.
Article in IJU case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Introduction: A case of bilateral high intra-abdominal testes successfully treated with multistage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy is reported. Case Presentation: A 6-month-old boy with bilateral nonpalpable testes was diagnosed with a left intra-abdominal testis located immediately caudal to the spleen on magnetic resonance imaging and laparoscopy. At the age of 4 years, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging detected a structure immediately caudal to the liver, which was suspected to be the right testis. With a diagnosis of bilateral intra-abdominal testes, one-stage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy was performed on the right testis at 5 years of age. After confirming its development, two-stage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy was performed on the left testis at 10 years of age. Conclusion: After confirming the development of the right testis that underwent one-stage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy, two-stage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy was completed on the left testis, resulting in the successful preservation of both testes and normal sexual development.
