Genital Giant Molluscum Contagiosum in an Immunocompetent Male Patient: A Case Report and Literature Review.
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
Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is an epidermal infectious disease caused by DNA molluscipoxvirus. Genital MC is well known as a sexually transmitted disease occurring in adulthood. A 27-year-old male presented with a two-month history of a growing pinkie-sized genital mass. At the right base of the penis, a dome-shaped 1.5 cm nodule was present with two typical MCs nearby. A giant genital MC was diagnosed, which was gently and bluntly plucked off with forceps without pain or bleeding. The PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched using the keyword "giant molluscum contagiosum," and profiles of 104 cases were confirmed. Genital MCs are rare in immunocompetent patients.
