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

Pituitary macroadenoma and angiofibroma are two distinct and diverse types of tumors that can develop in different anatomical locations and clinical characteristics and are not typically related to each other in terms of their hormonal or developmental aspects. This case describes an adult male with pituitary macroadenoma with nasal angiofibroma. A 35-year-old male was diagnosed with pituitary macroadenoma and incidentally found to have juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (NPA). The patient underwent a diagnostic workup, including imaging studies and hormonal assays, which confirmed the concomitant presence of both tumors. The patient underwent successful endoscopic surgical excision of the NPA and transnasal transsphenoidal endoscopic pituitary macroadenoma excision as a two-stage operation. The patient was followed up postoperatively and had no evidence of tumor recurrence or hormonal imbalances. The importance of complete and comprehensive diagnostic workup and multidisciplinary management in achieving successful and optimum treatment outcomes for coexisting NPA and pituitary macroadenoma in an adult patient is highlighted in the present report.
