Utility of Adrenal Vein Sampling to Guide Surgical Management of Hypercortisolism.
Article in Case reports in endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 report a case of successfully lateralized adrenal cortisol hypersecretion by adrenal venous sampling (AVS) and improved by surgery. AVS is a commonly used tool to guide surgical management of primary hyperaldosteronism. It can determine lateralization, leading to unilateral adrenalectomies of the correct side, or nonlateralization, which precludes surgery. The use of AVS in determining lateralization in hypercortisolism is a growing field of discussion. Currently, there is no defined or unanimous protocol behind procedural details and interpretation of results. In this report, we describe the AVS protocol at our institution for hypercortisolism, interpretation of the results, and corresponding surgical outcomes for a case of mild autonomous cortisol secretion.
