Monkeypox-Associated Genital Necrosis in an Immunocompromised Patient: Case Report and Literature Review of Genital Mpox Reconstruction.
Article in Archives of plastic surgery, 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
Monkeypox (Mpox) is a viral infection that has shown increased global incidence, particularly affecting immunocompromised populations. We present a case of a 45-year-old human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive man with progressive penile ulceration and necrosis. Mpox was confirmed via polymerase chain reaction testing of skin and oropharyngeal lesions. Despite antiviral therapy and antibiotics, the patient developed full-thickness necrosis of the penile shaft, scrotum, and suprapubic region. Surgical incision, drainage, and debridement were performed, followed by reconstruction using a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap. Secondary intention healing was selected for the penile shaft to preserve tissue elasticity and erectile function. The patient achieved complete wound healing within 3 months without complications. This case highlights a severe and rare manifestation of mpox in the setting of advanced HIV infection, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis, multidisciplinary management, and tailored surgical planning to optimize both functional and aesthetic outcomes in immunocompromised patients.
