Bladder paraganglioma after kidney transplantation: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundKidney transplantation is associated with an increased risk of tumors in the urinary bladder. Among all the pathological types of tumors in the bladder, paraganglioma, which arises from extra-adrenal paraganglia and consists of chromaffin cells, is rare. Paragangliomas might cause severe clinical symptoms due to catecholamine hypersecretion or mass compression. Bladder paragangliomas are rare, especially those appearing after kidney transplantation. Here, we report a case of bladder paraganglioma developing after kidney transplantation. CASE SUMMARY: A 63-year-old woman received a kidney transplant 12 years ago and took oral immunosuppressants (cyclosporine, mizoribine, and methylprednisolone) for regular post-transplant treatment. The patient felt no discomfort and she came to the hospital for a routine checkup. A mass located in the bladder was incidentally discovered by computed tomography, and she underwent surgical treatment. A 2 cm × 2 cm invasive mass was found in the trigone of the bladder and the mass was removed. The diagnosis of paraganglioma was confirmed by morphology and immunophenotyping. The patient had a good prognosis and is still alive.
conclusionParaganglioma can grow in the bladder, which might cause no clinical symptoms. The diagnosis mainly depends on morphology and immunophenotyping. Surgical resection is an important treatment option for such patients.
