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

Introduction: We report a rare case of multiple spermatic cord angiolipomas. Case Presentation: An 85-year-old man with a history of laparoscopic right nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma was referred for evaluation of a palpable right scrotal mass. Ultrasonography showed a single solid mass. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a solid nodule in contact with the right spermatic cord and a fatty mass below the nodule. Right inguinal orchiectomy was performed. Histopathological examination of the surgical specimen was consistent with angiolipoma. He was discharged 4 days postoperatively, and no recurrence has been observed during the subsequent 8 months. Conclusion: Angiolipomas are benign and rarely occur in paratesticular tissue. They should be distinguished from liposarcomas, given the differences in treatment and prognosis. Diagnosis requires surgical resection and histopathological examination. Once resected, angiolipomas rarely recur, and the prognosis is good.
