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

Introduction: Testicular mucinous borderline tumor is a rare primary testicular neoplasm with a generally favorable prognosis. Herein, we report a case diagnosed after high orchiectomy, with a brief literature review. Case Presentation: A 77-year-old man presented with discomfort in the left scrotum. Computed tomography revealed enlargement and calcification of the left testis and indicated a testicular tumor. High orchiectomy was performed, and pathological examination revealed a mucinous borderline tumor. Postoperative upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy showed no abnormal findings, leading to the diagnosis of primary testicular mucinous borderline tumor. Twelve months postoperatively, no evidence of postoperative recurrence or metastasis was observed. Conclusion: We presented a rare case of testicular mucinous borderline tumor. Considering the existence of a case with metastasis, long-term imaging follow-up is advised.
