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

Giant adrenal cysts are rare lesions, most often discovered incidentally. In this case report, a patient presenting with nonspecific abdominal distension is described. Imaging studies revealed a vast cystic mass closely attached to the left adrenal gland. Neither routine laboratory tests nor endocrine function tests revealed abnormalities. By performing open surgery, the cystic mass was completely removed. According to the pathological results, the wall of the cystic mass has an endothelial structure and some vascular components. Comprehensive analysis indicated that this case was an angiomatous adrenal endothelial cyst which was an extremely uncommon form of an adrenal cyst. Over a one-year follow-up, no evidence of recurrence was observed in the patient postoperatively. Through this case, we wish to raise awareness of this disease.
