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 Mondor disease is a rare, often underrecognized condition caused by thrombosis of the superficial dorsal penile vein; arterial thrombosis is even rarer. We report a 30-year-old man with sickle cell anaemia who presented with 10 days of painful erections and dorsal penile induration. Doppler ultrasound demonstrated deep dorsal penile vein and left dorsal penile artery thrombosis. Sickle cell anaemia confers a hypercoagulable state predisposing to venous and arterial thrombosis. This represents the first reported case of combined deep dorsal penile vein and artery thrombosis, highlighting the value of Doppler ultrasound and need for clinical suspicion in patients with coagulopathies.
