A Peculiar Case of Cabergoline Response to a Non-functioning Cystic Pituitary Adenoma in a Young Adult Male.

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
We present an interesting case of a cystic, pituitary adenoma that showed up insidiously with non-traditional clinical symptoms. The standard of care for non-functioning pituitary adenomas is transsphenoidal surgery. However, with pharmacotherapy using cabergoline (a dopamine receptor agonist), the patient had a near disappearance of the tumor. This case report seeks to add to the medical literature the possibility of pharmacotherapy for treating non-functional pituitary adenomas.
