Complex endocrinopathies in MEN-1: diagnostic dilemmas in endocrine oncology.
Article in Endocrine pathology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Endocrine oncology is a complex area that must determine the site of a neoplastic process and the hormonal dysregulation that ensues. Patients with endocrine tumors often have delayed diagnosis because of the nonspecific and often subtle signs and symptoms. In patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes, diagnosis and clinicopathologic correlations can be even more challenging. We report a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) and a highly complex clinical story associated with multiple atypical lesions including two pituitary adenomas, a gonadotroph macroadenoma and a corticotroph microadenoma with Crooke's hyaline change and ectopic production of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) from a thymic endocrine carcinoma. These lesions resulted in a highly complex clinical story, difficult diagnoses and questions about management. This case illustrates a number of clinically relevant challenges, including the diagnosis of pituitary adenomas in MEN-1, the difficulty in diagnosing Cushing's disease, and the large differential of pituitary pathologies in this disorder, double pituitary adenomas and other decoy lesions in Cushing's disease, the pathophysiology of Crooke's hyaline change in the pituitary, and the various causes of Cushing's syndrome associated with MEN-1.
