Excision versus division of Müllerian duct remnants in male disorders of sexual development and differentiation: a prospective study to generate anatomical assessment criteria.

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
backgroundMüllerian duct remnants (MDRs) in male disorders of sexual development (DSD) exhibit variable degrees of development and Wolffian duct relations, influencing surgical decision-making.
objectivesThis study introduces the G-V
methodsA cohort of 18 male-reared DSD patients with MDRs was prospectively managed laparoscopically, out of 20 initially considered cases. Surgical approaches included either longitudinal splitting/division or near-total excision. G-V
resultsPatients with higher EMS (≥ 8.5) were more likely to require MDR division due to complex MDR-vas deferens relations, while those with EMS ≤ 5.5 underwent excision. Bilateral MDR-vas deferens relations favoured division (83.3%), whereas unilateral or absent MDR-vas deferens relations were more common in the excision group (41.6% and 50%, respectively). A significant correlation was found between EMS and surgical approach (p = 0.004).
