Successful laparoscopic resection of a paraganglioma immediately behind the inferior vena cava and bilateral renal veins.
Article in IJU case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionParagangliomas have a rich blood flow and are located around large vessels; thus, resection is often difficult. We herein report a case of a paraganglioma that was located immediately behind the inferior vena cava and bilateral renal veins and successfully resected by laparoscopic surgery. CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old man was incidentally diagnosed with a 7-cm retroperitoneal mass immediately behind the inferior vena cava and bilateral renal veins by computed tomography. The mass was diagnosed as a retroperitoneal paraganglioma. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery in the left lateral decubitus position. The tumor was dissected completely with no complications.
conclusionResection of retroperitoneal paragangliomas is often a surgical challenge. The feasibility of the laparoscopic approach to such paragangliomas was demonstrated in the present case.
