Chronic Inflammatory Tunica Vaginalis Masses With Haemorrhagic Hydrocoele Fluid: A Rare Finding in a Patient With Vaginal Hydrocoele.
Article in Cureus, 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
Tunica vaginalis masses are a part of the paratesticular masses, which are rare. The combination of the finding of tunica vaginalis masses with haemorrhagic hydrocele fluid will make for a high index of suspicion of a mitotic lesion. Most reported cases of tunica vaginalis masses are mesotheliomas, most of which present as painless scrotal swellings with hydrocele. Our patient is a 58-year-old man who presented with a painless swelling involving the left hemiscrotum, in which the histopathological findings following surgery turned out to be chronic inflammatory tunica vaginalis masses. Chronic Inflammatory tunica vaginalis masses, even though rare, should be borne in mind when thinking of possible differential diagnosis in a patient with painless scrotal swelling.
