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

Adrenal ganglioneuroma (AGN) is an extremely rare, benign tumor that originates from the neural crest tissue of the sympathetic nervous system. The majority of cases are detected incidentally, since the disease often lacks clear clinical manifestations or is asymptomatic. In addition, AGN is often misdiagnosed as being an adrenal adenoma or adrenal pheochromocytoma. The present study describes a 58-year-old female who visited the outpatient clinic of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical College (Zhanjiang, Guangdong, China) with symptoms of face and lower extremity dropsy. Color Doppler ultrasonography revealed a solid tumor in the right kidney, and abdominal computed tomography identified an irregular, solid tumor measuring ~6×4.5×7 cm
