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

The prevalence of adrenal incidentalomas (i.e., incidental findings) has grown in recent years with the evolution of imaging methods. Adrenal masses can be benign or malignant. Malignant ones are less frequent, but the detection of primary adrenal neoplasms is even less frequent, especially in the case of a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This case concerns a 68-year-old man who presented to the emergency department due to fatigue and anorexia. Given his blood test results on admission, he underwent a computed tomography (CT) with angiography that identified a mass in the left adrenal gland with displacement of the ipsilateral kidney. Left tumorectomy, adrenalectomy, and nephrectomy were performed, and the mass corresponded to a nongerminal center-type DLBCL. This case highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and surgical and pharmacologic treatment of DLBCL.
