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

Adrenocortical tumors (ACTs) are rare in children and should be treated as malignant tumors. A 12-year-old female patient was referred to our institute for acute abdomen and hypovolemic shock. She had symptoms of virilization, including lowered voice, beard growth, and hirsutism. An elevated level of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate was observed, and computed tomography scan showed a large left adrenal mass with massive hemorrhage. Emergency transcatheter arterial embolization was successfully performed using N-buthyl-2-cyanoacrylate as an embolic material. She underwent surgical resection on the following day. Histopathological analysis showed strong degeneration of the tumor and its necrosis, and the tumor was diagnosed as ACT of unknown grade. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a ruptured ACT treated with transcatheter arterial embolization in a pediatric patient.
