Multi-detector computed tomography in the diagnosis and characterization of adrenal gland traumatic injuries.
Review in Gland surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 gland injuries after a blunt abdominal trauma are rare events and represent important indicators for severe trauma. Multidetector CT evolution with high volumetric resolution and fast acquisition with the use of multiplanar reformatted (MPR) visualization allows for an accurate and fast diagnosis of the adrenal gland for post-traumatic pathologies. While, before its introduction the diagnosis was made mainly postmortem or during surgery. Adrenal injuries are unilateral up to 90% of the cases involving most commonly the right gland; thoracoabdominal organs injuries are often also associated. Bilateral adrenal lesions are asymptomatic, potentially leading to the development of acute adrenal insufficiency. The purpose of the present review was to determine the prevalence, the mechanism of injury and the different CT appearances of adrenal trauma. Prognosis and management of adrenal injury will also be reviewed.
