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

Seminal vesicle schwannomas are rare entities, reported in only a handful of cases since 2002. These benign neoplasms originate from the peripheral nerve sheath and are typically found incidentally on imaging or during the workup of nonspecific urologic symptoms. The case presented here describes the incidental finding of a seminal vesicle schwannoma, initially believed to be "acute seminal vesiculitis" during a gross hematuria evaluation. The patient was diagnosed with synchronous prostate cancer for which he underwent open radical retropubic prostatectomy, with excision of bilateral seminal vesicles, resulting in the diagnosis of seminal vesicle schwannoma on final pathology review.
