PARTIAL ADRENALECTOMY - HOW FAR CAN WE GO?
Article in Acta endocrinologica (Bucharest, Romania : 2005). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Organ preservation and functional resections are the mainstays of most surgical sub-specialties at the present time. This is even more evident in endocrine surgery, where the product of secretion of these petit organs is of paramount importance. Partial adrenalectomy and cortical sparing techniques have evolved to actually compete with total adrenalectomy, the historical gold standard treatment. Much refined imaging techniques can readily identify smaller adrenal lesions that can be addressed surgically or percutaneously given the indication. The trend towards partial adrenalectomy is straightforward in bilateral disease where steroid replacement can be avoided while for unilateral disease, normal hormonal levels can be obtained. The reviewed publications offer deep insight into the advancement of partial or cortical sparing adrenal procedures from pioneering work to large cohort studies.
