Adrenal Cortical Rests in the Fallopian Tube: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Ectopic adrenal rest is a rare phenomenon usually discovered incidentally during microscopic evaluation. The most common site reported in the literature is the genitourinary system and pelvis. Ectopic adrenal rest is more common in male than in female children. The documented site for females is mainly along the broad ligament. However, only two cases of ectopic adrenal rest in the fallopian tube have been reported in the literature, showing that they are extremely rare. In this article, we outline a case of adrenal cortical rest that was discovered incidentally during a microscopic examination of the left fallopian tube after a total hysterectomy with a left salpingo-oophorectomy specimen from a 49-year-old female patient who was complaining of severe bleeding related to severe adenomyosis.
