Unique Presentation and Perioperative Management of a Giant Pheochromocytoma.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Pheochromocytomas are neuroendocrine tumors that arise from chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla. Giant pheochromocytomas commonly measure greater than 7 to 10 cm, and their incidence and presentation is not well known. We present a case of a 62-year-old female with a giant 15.9 cm cystic pheochromocytoma. The patient was medically managed with oral phenoxybenzamine solution dose 4 times greater than average and was treated with a radical left nephrectomy and adrenalectomy. This case offers insight into the clinical presentation of giant pheochromocytomas and the unique challenges they present both medically and surgically.
