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 carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with a very poor prognosis. A 77-year-old man underwent imaging studies due to poorly controlled hypertension, which revealed a mass measuring 43 mm in diameter near the left adrenal gland. There were no findings indicative of pheochromocytoma. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) was performed for the preoperative pathological evaluation, and the findings indicated a possibility of ACC. Based on these results, curative surgery was performed. If the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma is excluded, then EUS-FNA for adrenal lesions is relatively safe. It can also be used for the preoperative diagnosis of ACC.
