5th International ACC Symposium: Imaging for Diagnosis and Surveillance of Adrenal Tumors--New Advances and Reviews of Old Concepts.
Review in Hormones & cancer, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is often diagnosed incidentally. However, significant difficulties persist in diagnosing the rare ACC among the very common benign adrenal tumors, which are present in up to 5% of the population. Due to the very low prevalence of ACC, prospective studies are impossible to conduct. Two recent studies took the approach of reviewing preexisting adrenal tumors prior to the diagnosis of ACC. These data challenge current concepts of diagnosis and surveillance of incidentally discovered masses. Oncocytomas (benign and malignant) represent an entity that can be difficult to be diagnosed by radiographic characteristics and even histologically. However, some recent data provides insight into their appearance in imaging procedures. With regards to ACC specific imaging, which could be applied for differential diagnosis of adrenal tumors, surgery planning and surveillance several radionucleotides have been evaluated over the last decades showing promising results. Of particular interest, these substances can potentially be used for therapy as well.
