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

purposeCastleman's disease (CD) is a rare and complex disease of lymphoid tissues typically involving a mediastinal mass. CD in the adrenal area is an even rarer occurrence. In the present study, two extremely rare cases of adrenal Castleman's disease at our hospital are reported, and the relevant literatures were reviewed. Significant findings: A 51-year-old woman had abdominal pain for 1 month. Physical examination revealed a mass in the left abdominal. A computed tomography (CT) scan confirmed the presence of the mass. Additionally, a left suprarenal mass was detected in a 56-year-old male patient during a regular medical checkup. He had no symptoms when he arrived at our hospital. The two patients underwent mass excision via a retroperitoneal laparoscopic approach. Postoperative histopathological examination of both patients' specimens suggested a diagnosis of the hyaline vascular-type of CD.

conclusionsThese two rare cases confirm that CD can occur in the adrenal gland area. In addition, we also demonstrate that retroperitoneoscopic surgical management is effective in the treatment of the disease.
