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

Adrenal myelolipoma is a benign tumor of the adrenal cortex composed predominantly of fat and hematopoietic tissue. These lesions are usually asymptomatic, and most often incidentally detected on imaging. Uncommonly, they present with retroperitoneal hemorrhage, and these have been traditionally treated with emergent surgery. Although, transarterial embolization has been effectively and safely used in patients presenting with active hemorrhage from acute traumatic and nontraumatic causes, literature specifically pertaining to adrenal artery embolization is scant, perhaps due to smaller size and variability of adrenal arteries. With recent advances in endovascular techniques and imaging, there are emerging case reports and series of adrenal artery embolization in acute and nonacute settings. We report a case of spontaneous hemorrhage within an adrenal myelolipoma in a 43-year-old male patient, successfully treated with transarterial embolization, thereby avoiding major surgery. Our report adds to the growing body of literature pertaining to adrenal artery embolization.
