Duplicated Right Testicular Artery: A Cadaveric Case Report and Review of the Literature.
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
The testicular artery usually arises as a single branch from the abdominal aorta. Anatomical variations, including duplication, are rare but clinically relevant in urological, vascular, and radiological practices. During routine cadaveric dissections, two male specimens were found to have duplicated right testicular arteries. Each specimen exhibited two distinct arterial branches originating directly from the abdominal aorta, descending independently within the spermatic cord. No associated renal or ureteral anomalies were identified. Duplication of the testicular artery has been documented in anatomical studies and, when present, is most commonly observed on the right side. Embryologically, this anomaly is attributed to the persistence of one or more mesonephric arteries that normally regress during development. Although often asymptomatic, recognition of this variation is essential in orchiectomy, varicocelectomy, renal transplantation, and interventional radiology to prevent inadvertent ischemic injury. This case report highlights duplicated right testicular arteries observed in two different cadavers, emphasizing the importance of awareness of vascular variations in surgical and radiological practice.
