Penile gangrene induced by colovesical fistula: a case report.
Article in BMC urology, 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
introductionFournier’s gangrene (FG) is a progressive necrotizing soft tissue infection of the perineum, perianal region, and external genitalia caused by one or more pathogenic microorganisms. CASE PRESENTATION: This article presents a case of an 83-year-old male patient with penile FG caused by a colovesical fistula. The patient was admitted with penile swelling and necrosis and had a prior history of a colovesical fistula that had not been adequately treated. Upon diagnosis, comprehensive treatment was administered, including antimicrobial therapy, and anti-shock therapies. Surgical interventions included debridement, colovesical fistula repair, and partial penectomy. The article provides a detailed account of the treatment process, postoperative management, and follow-up, aiming to serve as a reference for similar clinical cases.
conclusionFG resulting from a colovesical fistula is extremely rare. Effective management of this condition requires prompt and aggressive antimicrobial therapy, early debridement, and timely repair of the colovesical fistula.
