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

We present a clinical case of a 59-year-old man, father of two children, who complained of irritative voiding of the bladder. An unknown retrovesical structure was detected by ultrasound and computed tomography, and was surgically removed later. Histopathologic analysis reported uterine tissue with a leiomyoma, thus the diagnosis of persistent müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) was established. It is a rare disorder characterized by the appearance of müllerian derivatives (fallopian tubes, uterus, and upper two-thirds of vagina) in males with normally developed external and internal genitalia. Patients usually present with cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia. Irritative voiding has not yet been described as the main symptom of PMDS. The major complications of the disorder are infertility, testicular tumorigenesis, and malignant transformation of müllerian structures. To the best of our knowledge, in addition to our case, only one case of PMDS with uterine leiomyoma has been described in the literature so far.
