A large adrenal myelolipoma: case report and review of the literature.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. 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 myelolipoma is a rare benign neoplasm composed of mature adipose tissue and myeloid tissue with a variable amount of hematopoietic elements. Most patients are asymptomatic although some present with pain or even endocrine dysfunction. The rising use of CT and MRI scans has led to an increase of the detection of adrenal myelolipomas in recent years. The indications for surgery are symptomatic patients and lesions bigger than 5 cm or suspicious for malignancy. A case of a 50-year-old woman is presented here who was referred for surgical resection of a large nonfunctioning right adrenal mass. The neoplasm was resected through a midline laparotomy. Histopathology revealed a lesion consisting predominantly of fatty issue containing all types of hematopoietic stem cells and confirmed the diagnosis of myelolipoma.
