Case Report: A rare case of antenatally diagnosed mature adrenal teratoma in an infant: insights and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Teratomas are germ cell tumors that arise from the derivatives of the three germ cell layers. They are categorized into subtypes by the extent of maturation, with mature teratomas being the most common subtype. While they can arise in various extragonadal regions, including the retroperitoneum, their occurrence in the retroperitoneal space is extremely rare. It is even more exceptional for these tumors to be located within the adrenal gland. In this report, we describe an 18-day-old female infant who presented with a left suprarenal mass. The mass was detected during prenatal screening via ultrasound at 30 weeks of pregnancy. Evaluation after birth, including a chest and abdomen computed tomography (CT) scan, revealed a large, well-defined left suprarenal mass. The mass was surgically resected and found to measure 9 cm × 7 cm × 5 cm. Histopathological examination confirmed a cystic mature teratoma containing a variety of well-differentiated tissues. The patient has shown excellent progress over the 1-year follow-up, with no evidence of recurrence. Only a few cases of mature adrenal teratoma have been reported, highlighting the importance of this case report.
