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

Adenomatoid tumors (ATs) are uncommon, benign tumors of mesothelial origin, most frequently found in the genital tracts of both sexes. Extragenital localization sites, such as adrenal glands, are extremely rare. Since patients with adrenal ATs have no obvious clinical symptoms, imaging examination has become important evidence for diagnosis. Although previous literature noted that the imaging findings of adrenal ATs were nonspecific, no relevant studies have confirmed this. We herein present two novel cases of adrenal ATs, confirmed by immunohistochemistry, and that were initially misdiagnosed as other, more common adrenal tumors based on clinical findings and preoperative imaging. Including our cases, we collected a total of 33 previously reported adrenal ATs and extracted all available imaging information from them, aiming to find some radiological characteristics of this rare tumor. Through the review, we identified some nonspecific imaging features of adrenal ATs; however, the final diagnosis still depends on pathology and immunohistochemistry results.
