Impact of adrenalectomy on hypertension in patients with nonfunctional adrenal tumors: a retrospective study.
Article in World journal of urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo investigate the impact of adrenalectomy on hypertension in patients with nonfunctional adrenal tumors. SUBJECTS AND
methodsBetween January 2020 and October 2022, patients with adrenal lesions were retrospectively screened for nonfunctional adrenal tumors at the Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University. All patients underwent detailed endocrinological examination and computed tomography to characterize the lesions. One year after discharge, follow-up blood pressure (BP) was assessed and compared to the blood pressure on admission. Univariate analysis and multivariate regression analysis were performed to determine factors predicting favorable hypertension outcomes after adrenalectomy.
resultsA total of 309 patients were found to be eligible, including 123 who underwent adrenalectomy. Patients who underwent adrenalectomy were stratified into two groups: (Bancos I (2022) Adrenal Incidentalomas: Insights Into Prevalence. Ann Intern Med 175:1481-1482. https://doi.org/10.7326/M22-2600 ) those with improved hypertension (n = 71), and (Fassnacht M, Tsagarakis S, Terzolo M, Tabarin A, Sahdev A, Newell-Price J et al. (2023) European Society of Endocrinology clinical practice guidelines on the management of adrenal incidentalomas, in collaboration with the European Network for the Study of Adrenal Tumors. Eur J Endocrinol 189:G1-42. https://doi.org/10.1093/ejendo/lvad066 ) those without improved hypertension (n = 52). In contrast, the blood pressure levels of conservatively treated patients remained relatively stable 1 year after discharge. Univariate analysis and multivariate regression analysis showed that body mass index (BMI) and duration of hypertension were significantly different between the hypertension improvement group and the non-improvement group (p < 0.05).
conclusionAdrenalectomy has been shown to be effective in improving hypertension in certain patients with nonfunctional adrenal tumors. BMI and duration of hypertension were independent factors associated with favorable hypertension outcomes after adrenalectomy.
