A posteriori diagnosis of DRESS syndrome induced by diazoxide in a patient with an insulinoma: a case report and review of the literature.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) syndrome can be potentially life-threatening. The diagnosis is sometimes difficult since the clinical manifestations may be incomplete or non-specific. Insulinoma is a rare functioning neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of the pancreas. Medical therapy may be needed when surgery is contraindicated, delayed or refused. Diazoxide is widely used to control hypoglycemia in patients with insulinoma. We report a clinical case of an insulinoma in a 85-year-old patient treated with diazoxide with a fatal outcome due to a delayed diagnosis of a DRESS syndrome. This is the first case of DRESS syndrome reported after using diazoxide for insulinoma treatment in our knowledge.
