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
Paragangliomas and pheocromocytomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors with different clinical presentation, being responsible for secondary arterial hypertension with target-organ lesions. Surgery is a curative therapy in these tumors and demands a multidisciplinary approach. These tumors are more frequent between the 4th and 5th decades of life and their clinical manifestations are related to catecholamines production: headache, palpitations, variable blood pressure. This article presents 13 clinical cases of patients with neuroendocrine tumors, with an median-age of 56,7 years, submitted to surgery between 2014 and 2017. The diagnosis was made based on clinical suspicion, serum and urinary catecholamines and metanephrins, imagiologic evaluation with CT or abdominal and pelvic MRI and MIBG scintigraphy. After surgery, the majority of patients remained with normal blood pressure, without anti-hypertensive therapy and follow-up was maintained in Outpatient Clinic, with periodic blood tests and imaging reevaluation.
