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

Paratestiular tumors are uncommon tumors in the vicinity of the testis with adenomatoid being the most common benign subtype. Adenomatoid tumors have a special predilection towards genital structures in both males and females. The epididymis is the most common site of occurrence of para-testicular adenomatoid tumors. These tumors show diversity in clinical presentation and most of the time remain inconclusive on ultrasonography and MRI. The radiological findings often mismatch with histopathological diagnosis. In our case, a young male of 28 years' age presented with persistent pain in the scrotum, and on clinical examination a separate testis-like structure was observed. The radiological modalities were suggested as a case of triorchidism with the presence of a normal extra testis in the right scrotal sac. The surgical excision of the lump was done and sent to the histopathology department which revealed the occurrence of adenomatoid tumor hence clinicians should be aware of these clinical and radiological diversities of paratesticular adenomatoid masses and should be meticulous in managing patients with spurious scrotal masses.
