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

Penile cancer is a rare but relevant tumor entity. Due to the low case numbers in individual hospitals deviations from treatment standards and delayed treatment repeatedly occur. This is all the more serious as only an early and consistent treatment management can ensure a curative approach. For this reason, in several European countries penile cancer is only treated in a few special centers. This article provides a current overview of the epidemiology and etiology as well as diagnostic recommendations and treatment options for this malignant neoplasm. The early diagnosis is decisive for the subsequent approach. A consistent primary management with an organ-preserving complete resection of the primary tumor and all lymph nodes infested by the tumor whenever possible is a basic prerequisite for a curative treatment of penile cancer. In a metastatic situation a multimodal treatment concept is often necessary. A good psycho-oncological accompaniment of the patient and a consistent follow-up care also appear to be crucial.
