A Rare Case of Insulinoma in a Thin, Lean Adult Male: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Insulinoma is an insulin-secreting tumor that causes hypoglycemia due to inappropriately high insulin secretion. The Whipple's triad, which comprises indications of hypoglycemia (tremor, sweating, irritability, uneasiness, and weakness), plasma glucose concentration <55 mg/dL (3.0 mmol/L), and resolution of symptoms after administration of glucose, is utilized for the determination of insulinoma. In this report, we present the case of a thin, lean, adult male with a BMI of 22, who presented with repetitive episodes of tremor, sweating, weariness, and perplexity that occurred amid fasting and settled with meals, fulfilling Whipple's triad criteria for the determination of insulinoma. The episodes frequently led to seizures. Supervised fasting was carried out, which revealed raised C-peptide levels, low blood glucose, and negative sulfonylurea screen. A computed tomography (CT) scan localized the tumor, and surgical resection was planned.
