SDHB-Associated Paraganglioma Syndrome in Africa-A Need for Greater Genetic Testing.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 germline mutation is identified in almost 40% of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL) syndromes. Genetic testing and counseling are essential for the management of index cases as well as presymptomatic identification and preemptive management of affected family members. Mutations in the genes encoding the mitochondrial enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) are well described in patients with hereditary PPGL. Among patients of African ancestry, the prevalence, phenotype, germline mutation spectrum, and penetrance of
