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

Background: Approximately 30-40% of paragangliomas (PGLs) and pheochromocytomas (PCCs) harbor an underlying hereditary cause. Early identification of at-risk individuals is imperative given the early onset, aggressiveness of tumors, and other tumor/cancer risks associated with hereditary PGLs/PCCs. This study analyzes the clinical presentations and genetic histories of patients with PGL/PCC and/or hereditary risk to contribute to the expanding knowledge in this rare population. Methods: A retrospective chart review identified two cohorts of patients seen in cancer genetics clinics at an academic medical center and a safety-net hospital between August 2016 and December 2022. Cohort 1 consisted of patients with likely pathogenic variants (LPVs)/pathogenic variants (PVs) in hereditary PGL/PCC predisposition genes. Cohort 2 consisted of patients with a personal history of a PGL/PCC. Demographics, personal/family history, and genetic testing outcomes were analyzed. Results: A total of 560 patients met the study criteria (Cohort 1, Conclusions: Multigene panels identify patients at risk for hereditary PGL/PCC, many of whom are incidentally found. While
