1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Malakoplakia is a rare disorder 75% of the reported cases affect mainly the genitourinary tract, its occurrence in the adrenal gland is extremely rare. Case presentation: A 65-year-old female patient presented to the emergency department for chronic abdominal pain. Radiographic and biochemical studies revealed a left adrenal incidentaloma and left adrenalectomy was performed. Histological examination showed the presence of Michaelis-Gutmann bodies, compatible with a malakoplakia of the adrenal gland. Conclusions: Malakoplakia is a rare disorder, with non-standardized treatment, medical and surgical therapies appear to be effective in treating the condition.
