Horseshoe adrenal gland associated with type 1 diastematomyelia in an asymptomatic adult.
Article in BJR case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A horseshoe adrenal gland is a rare congenital anomaly found almost exclusively in neonates and infants based on autopsy studies. It is a term used to describe a solitary adrenal gland situated in the midline, posterior to the inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta. To date, in the literature, there have been very few cases documented in adults and they have also been reported to be associated with other co-existing intra-abdominal, vascular and vertebral congenital anomalies. We describe a rare case of an asymptomatic adult patient who was incidentally found to have a horseshoe adrenal gland as well as a Type 1 diastematomyelia.
