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

Adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC) are rare but highly aggressive neoplasms. Intra-cardiac involvement with ACC is extremely rare and usually develops by intravascular invasion through the inferior vena cava (IVC). Complete surgical resection remains the most effective treatment. ACC prognosis is poor with a five-year overall survival rate of ∼35%. The poor prognosis may be related to the advanced stage at which the majority of adrenal carcinomas are detected. We encountered a 52-year-old male patient with a huge right adrenal mass with a tumor thrombus invading the IVC towards the right atrium and another tumor mass present in the right ventricle below the tricuspid valve. A whole-body scan revealed metastases everywhere. The patient started palliative chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Later, during a debulking surgery of the tumor with cardiopulmonary support the patient died. <
