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

Ganglioneuromas (GNs) are benign, differentiated tumors that are derived from neural crest sympathogonia. They can be found anywhere in the body along autonomic ganglia. These tumors are seen most often in individuals over 10 years of age and are usually asymptomatic. However, GNs can grow large and cause symptoms due to mass effect. GNs are rarely located within the suprarenal gland and are benign tumors that are often diagnosed late in their course due to mass effect or found incidentally on imaging studies. We describe a case of a 22-year-old female who presented to clinic with vague abdominal pain. She underwent an extensive workup which ultimately revealed a rare presentation of a left suprarenal GN that required surgical removal. She underwent an extensive workup which ultimately revealed a left suprarenal GN that required surgical removal. The patient underwent laparotomy and surgical excision of the mass and made a full recovery.
