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

Buried penis, often caused by obesity, trauma, or surgery, results in penile concealment with functional and psychological effects. We report on a 72-year-old man with severe buried penis after repeated circumcision, morbid obesity, and bilateral inguinal hernias. Prior surgical procedures failed due to scarring and fibrosis. He underwent a single-stage procedure including panniculectomy, penile exteriorization with full-thickness skin graft, erection testing, and hernia repair. Postoperatively, penile exposure and function were restored, enabling standing urination and erections. This case underscored the importance of comprehensive preoperative evaluation and addressing all contributing factors, including asymptomatic hernias, to guide effective multidisciplinary management and improve patient outcomes.
