Non-Functional Yet Terminal: A Case of Asymptomatic Retroperitoneal Paraganglioma With Distant Metastasis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Retroperitoneal paraganglioma remains an extremely rare type of tumor that arises from either sympathetic or parasympathetic neural crest cells. It could be functional or non-functional. Non-functional paraganglioma may present as a diagnostic challenge since patients are usually asymptomatic and tend to present to the hospital with complications from the invasion of the tumor. Malignancy is usually determined by the degree of metastasis. The gold standard of diagnosis is biopsy and obtaining a sample for histological examination. This author presents a case of asymptomatic, non-functional retroperitoneal paraganglioma with distant metastasis.
