Synthesis in Endocrine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
backgroundAdrenal masses are commonly encountered in clinical practice, many of whom are incidental. Identifying malignancy, and excess hormone production is essential for appropriate management. Biochemical workup and imaging tests (dedicated adrenal CT and/or MRI) are used to determine the likelihood of excessive hormone function and malignancy, respectively. However, imaging cannot provide information about function and biochemical workup cannot localize the source. Furthermore, in primary aldosteronism, adrenal vein sampling, the gold standard for lateralization, has important limitations such as the technical expertise required, the elevated costs, and potential complications. Over the last decades, there has been a renewed interest in alternative noninvasive imaging techniques that provide information about adrenal function without the need for invasive procedures. In this review, we will evaluate the evidence and the potential role of
