Paraganglioma of the Urinary Bladder: A Case Report on a Rare and Unexpected Tumor Location.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Paraganglioma of the urinary bladder is an exceptionally rare tumor. It originates from chromaffin cells, which are responsible for producing catecholamines. We report a unique case of a 74-year-old woman diagnosed with nonfunctional bladder paraganglioma, who presented with macroscopic hematuria and right-sided renal colic but lacked the usual symptoms associated with catecholamine excess. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of nonfunctional variants of paraganglioma due to their histological similarity to urothelial carcinomas. It underscores the importance of a thorough histological examination and the need for a multidisciplinary approach to establish a diagnosis and determine the optimal treatment strategy. Our case contributes to the sparse literature on this rare condition, and it aims to enhance clinicians' awareness and understanding of urinary bladder paragangliomas.
