Buschke-Löwenstein Tumour: Surgical Management and Literature Review of an Unusual Disease.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Buschke-Löwenstein tumours (BLTs) are rare, sexually transmitted lesions associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infections that primarily affect the perineal and genito-anal regions. Surgical excision is the standard treatment; however, management is often complicated by the tumour's local invasiveness, disease progression, variable treatment response, and high recurrence rates. Wound healing is especially challenging due to the proximity to perineal structures, increasing the risk of contamination and infection. We present the case of a man in his 50s with a large, circumferential anal BLT and a background of immunosuppression from prednisolone and mycophenolate treatment. This case highlights the complexities of managing BLTs and demonstrates surgical strategies, including reconstruction and diverting colostomy, to optimise both cosmetic and functional outcomes.
