Primary Hepatic Neuroendocrine Tumor With Ectopic Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Production.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
This report describes the case of a 63-year-old female with a metastatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET). Imaging studies revealed a primary hepatic NET (PHNET) originating in the porta hepatis and associated with extensive hepatic metastasis. This represents an extremely rare presentation of PHNET associated with ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) production and hypercortisolism. As such, it is a unique presentation of an otherwise rare pathology and hence we believe it contributes to the literature on PHNETs by supplementing it with information on an uncommon variation of an infrequent pathology.
