Estimation of the tumor size at cure threshold among adult patients with adrenocortical carcinoma: A populational-based study.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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
Background: The prognostic significance of tumor size with adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) patients has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Our objective was to investigate the influence of tumor size on prognostic value in adult ACC patients. Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program (SEER) was employed to identify adult ACC patients who had been diagnosed from 2004 to 2015. The " Results: A total 426 adult ACC patients were included. Univariable and multivariable cox analysis revealed age, larger tumor size and metastasis as consistent predictors of lower CSS and OS. The optimal cutoff value of tumor size was identified as 8.5 cm using Conclusion: The study suggests that tumor size is a crucial prognostic factor in ACC patients and a cutoff value 8.5 cm might indicate a poor outcome. Given the limitations of the available data, it is challenging to conclusively determine the benefit of chemotherapy in adult ACC patients across different tumor size ranges.
