First report of concomitant pheochromocytoma and duodenal neuroendocrine tumour in a sporadic multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 77-year-old woman was diagnosed with pheochromocytoma followed by adrenalectomy at age 57. Hyperparathyroidism without osteoprosis was diagnosed at age 58. At age 75, Dual Energy X-ray Absoptiometry (DEXA) revealed osteoporosis and sestamibi scan showed a left parathyroid adenoma. Criteria for parathyroidectomy were met, and she underwent parathyroidectomy. Furthermore, she presented with haematochezia at age 75. An abdominal CT demonstrated a mass in the second portion of the duodenum. Additionally, octreoscan revealed somatostatin receptor positive tissue in the duodenum and Gallium 68 dotatate scan also showed a well-differentiated duodenal neuroendocrine tumour (NET). Genetic testing for MEN1, MEN2 and MEN4 was negative. Diagnosis of sporadic MEN1 syndrome was made. The patient underwent resection of the duodenal NET at age 76. She is in good health 21 years after her first presentation of MEN1. In summary, we present the first sporadic case of MEN1 with concomitant pheochromocytoma and duodenal NET which occurred 20 years apart.
