Adrenal Ganglioneuroma: 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 4 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
Adrenal ganglioneuroma (AGN) are sympathetic differentiated tumors that originate from neural crest cells. It is a rare benign tumor in children and young adults. These lesions are usually asymptomatic and tend to be hormonally silent. Their discovery is fortuitous in imaging examinations. Preoperative diagnosis remains difficult, and the gold standard treatment is adrenalectomy. There is a good prognosis after surgery without recurrence. We herein report a case of adrenal ganglioneuroma in a 40-year-old man who benefited from an abdominal CT scan in the face of a complaint of abdominal discomfort and as part of the extension assessment of his colonic adenocarcinoma. Abdominal CT scan with contrast showed a left retroperitoneal mass of triangular shape within the adrenal lodge of tissue density, containing some calcifications not enhanced after injection of contrast product, measuring 90 x 62 mm in diameter (AP x T) with a relative washout calculated at 30%. Biopsy and histological examination of the mass suggested an adrenal ganglioneuroma.
