Case Report: Fournier's gangrene in children: a report of three cases from a pediatric center in Vietnam.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 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
Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a form of necrotizing fasciitis affecting the perineal and external genital regions. It is a rare urological emergency, particularly uncommon in children. Accurate diagnosis, early administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics, and timely surgical debridement are essential for effective management. In this study, we present three distinct pediatric cases of FG. The first case involved a 10-month-old boy with no underlying health conditions who was successfully treated with favorable outcomes. The second case was a 12-year-old boy with dengue fever and extensive scrotal gangrene, who recovered well after a challenging postoperative course. The third case was a 4-year-old boy who developed necrotizing scrotal infection following a second-stage hypospadias repair. All three patients were promptly diagnosed and managed with early intervention.
