Pathologic Characteristics of Somatotroph Pituitary Tumors-An Observational Single-Center Study.
Article in Biomedicines, 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
The pathologic evaluation of a tumor tissue is an essential part of an acromegaly patient's assessment. This study aimed to analyze the pathologic characteristics of pituitary tumors in patients with acromegaly. The demographic data, in addition to the hormonal, imaging, and pathologic results of 120 patients with acromegaly after pituitary surgery, were extracted from the Polish Acromegaly Registry. We compared sparsely and densely granulated tumors, GH(+), mixed GH(+)/PRL(+) and plurihormonal tumors, α-subunit-positive and α-subunit-negative tumors, and tumors of various Ki-67 indices in terms of the abovementioned features. Sparsely granulated tumors were more frequent in women than in men (
