Recurrent Hypoglycemia in a Non-diabetic Female: A Case Study on Doege-Potter Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are mesenchymal cell tumors that may arise from any site throughout the body. A small percentage of patients with SFT develop non-islet cell tumor-induced hypoglycemia (NICTH), eponymously termed Doege-Potter Syndrome (DPS). DPS is characterized by severe, refractory hypoinsulinemic hypoglycemia. Diagnosis of SFT is dependent on histologic findings and immunohistochemistry (IHC). NAB2-STAT6 gene fusions are pathognomonic for SFT but may be difficult to identify in routine cytogenetic studies. STAT6 IHC is a highly sensitive and specific surrogate for the NAB2-STAT6 gene fusion. Total resection of the tumor remains the gold-standard definitive treatment of SFT of the pleura. Palliative tumor debulking is recommended if total resection is not feasible. We here report a case of DPS in a 73-year-old female, managed with palliative care.
