Composite pheochromocytoma associated with neurofibromatosis type 1.
Article in IJU case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Composite pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor, occurring in only 3% of pheochromocytomas. We report a case of composite pheochromocytoma with neurofibromatosis type 1. Case presentation: A 42-year-old man was referred to our department for further evaluation of an incidentally detected right adrenal tumor. He was a patient at another hospital for neurofibromatosis type 1. The serum and urinary catecholamine levels exceeded the normal range. Abdominal computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a 2.8 cm diameter right adrenal tumor, and Conclusion: Preoperative diagnosis of composite pheochromocytoma-ganglioneuroma is difficult; therefore, histopathological examination is necessary for a definitive diagnosis. Pheochromocytoma management requires lifelong follow-up.
