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

Adrenal gland abscesses are rare lesions usually reported to be caused by fungal pathogens and typically through hematogenous spread from other primary sources of infection. Imaging has always been known to play a major role in the characterization of focal adrenal lesions. However, given the rare occurrence of abscesses in this location, making the right diagnosis remains challenging. We report the case of a 39-year-old man with chronic renal disease on hemodialysis presenting with signs of sepsis and left upper quadrant pain revealing a left adrenal gland abscess.
