1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Metastasis of a primary malignancy to the penis is rare with a limited number of reported cases this century. Of those cases, a small percentage are secondary to renal cell carcinoma, with most of these cases being caused by local invasion of prostate and bladder cancer. This report is that of a 70-year-old male who presented with penile swelling and pain, which was later determined to be secondary to metastatic renal cell carcinoma of the penis. Given the rarity of this disease process, the exact mechanism of invasion is still unknown and best treatment practices are based on symptomatic control.
