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

A 32-year-old man was found to have a nasal mass on DOTATATE positron emission tomography (PET) scan to investigate the cause of his syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). The patient presented 6 years earlier with malignant hypertension followed by a second emergency admission for hyponatraemia. Multiple scans and blood tests over 6 years yielded no cause for his SIADH. Nasendoscopy was unremarkable. A PET scan prompted endoscopic sinus surgery which resulted in the resection of a mass in the anterior hiatus semilunaris. The histological findings were fitting with a diagnosis of a neurocytic-type tumour favouring an olfactory neurocytoma. Following resection, the patient remains well and is cured of his SIADH. An olfactory neurocytoma although rare should be considered as a benign differential for a mass in the nasal space. This case demonstrates how an olfactory neurocytoma can present as a cause of SIADH.
