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

Background: Paragangliomas (PGLs) are uncommon tumors of uncertain malignant potential. Multifocal paragangliomas are scarcely reported in the literature. Case summary: A 25-year-old male patient was reported for the first time with multifocal para-aortic and para-vesical PGLs. The diagnosis was identified by blood catecholamine tests and enhanced CT scan and MIBG scintigraphy. A resection surgery was performed for treatment and the immunochemistry test of the tumors presented the features of PGL. Conclusion: A case of multifocal para-aortic and para-vesical PGLs confirmed by the catecholamine test, enhanced CT, and MIBG scintigraphy is presented. The cooperation of experienced surgeons, anesthesiologists, and endocrinologists was critical in treatment.
