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

We report here the case of a 21-year-old woman with a large sellar tumor, extending to the suprasellar area associated with growth hormone deficiency, hypogonadism, hypocorticism, and hyperprolactinemia. Transsphenoidal surgery was performed, and histologic, immunohistochemical, and electron microscopic study lead to the diagnosis of granular cell tumor. These tumors are, in most cases, very small and are found incidentally at autopsy of older patients. Our case is exceptional because the tumor developed in a young woman, extended to the suprasellar region, and caused clinical symptoms.
