Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in adolescents: Challenging diagnosis and poor prognosis of a rare entity.
Article in Urology case reports, 2026. 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
Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare, aggressive malignancy often misdiagnosed as benign scrotal mass in adolescents. We report a 16-year-old male with a painful scrotal mass, diagnosed at a metastatic stage (IRS Group IV) with retroperitoneal and pulmonary metastasis. Despite radical orchidectomy and intensive multimodal chemotherapy, the disease progressed rapidly, and the patient died 18 months later. Immunohistochemistry confirmed rhabdomyoblastic differentiation through Myogenin and MyoD1 expression. This case emphasizes that any adolescent scrotal mass must be considered malignant until proven otherwise, highlighting the need for early diagnosis and specialized management in metastatic cases.
