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

Apoplectic pituitary adenomas cause significant morbidity and even mortality. The pituitary apoplexy denotes a pituitary adenoma presenting with hemorrhage and/or infarction, implementation in remedial effects of various of drugs in pituitary apoplexy is a promising pharmacogenomic field in the near future adenoma treatment. Indisputably, this is an important horizon for complicated pituitary adenomas. In a pituitary adenoma, the interplay between genetic, cytokine, and growth factors promotes the pathogenic transformation into an apoplectic formation. However, till date, little is known about how all these factors together lead to the pathogenesis of apoplectic pituitary. The vascular endothelial growth factor, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG), matrix metalloproteinase-2/9 (MMP-2/9), proliferating marker (Ki-67), as well as hypoxia-inducing factor are the major contributing factors involved in pituitary apoplexy. The molecular mechanism involved in pituitary apoplexy has never been described so far. In this review, we discuss the various proteins/cytokines/growth factors and signaling molecules which are involved in the pathogenesis of pituitary apoplexy and their potential role as biomarkers or as therapeutic targets.
