Histiocytosis Presenting as Bilateral Adrenal Masses: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Adrenal masses are a rare diagnosis in children, with bilateral masses even less common. At present, appearance of the mass on imaging and histology can give important clues to the diagnosis; however, there is significant overlap in 10-30% of cases and it can be difficult to distinguish benign from malignant adrenal masses. As a result, the clinical presentation remains a large part of the diagnostic process, as well as thorough endocrinology evaluation to determine if the tumor is functional versus nonfunctional. Case Presentation: We present a recent case of bilateral adrenal masses in a pediatric patient at our institution, with an unusual diagnosis of histiocytosis. Conclusion: In this case, the diagnosis was unclear, until genetic testing and pathology allowed for expedient diagnosis and targeted therapy for this patient. We hope that presenting this case will increase physician awareness of this condition and expedite diagnosis and treatment in other patients with this rare presentation.
