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

Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors developed from chromaffin cells. They are exceptional in children with an atypical symptomatology. We report here a case of a 17-year-old boy who presented with a left retroperitoneal mass discovered on thoracic-abdominal-pelvic computed tomography (CT) scan in the presence of diffuse abdominal pain, more pronounced in the left hypochondrium. The exploration had objectified an exclusive secretion of urinary normetanephrine over 24 hours. Metanephrine and 3 ortho methyldopamine were within normal limits. He had adrenalectomy after controlling his blood pressure with an alpha blocker. Histology had confirmed a pheochromocytoma of non-aggressive potential
