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
Introduction: Adrenal myelolipoma is a benign adrenal tumor that is typically asymptomatic and is rarely associated with hemorrhage or rupture. Here, we present a case of adrenal myelolipoma with spontaneous hemorrhage. Case presentation: A 72-year-old man with a history of obesity and hypertension visited the Department of Emergency Medicine with a sudden onset of severe left flank pain. Enhanced computed tomography showed a left adrenal tumor containing a fat component with a focus of contrast medium visualized extravasation. The patient was diagnosed with adrenal myelolipoma with spontaneous hemorrhage. Selective adrenal arterial embolization was performed to manage the severe pain, and the condition immediately improved. Four months later, laparoscopic left adrenalectomy was performed via a transperitoneal approach. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of adrenal myelolipoma. Conclusion: Urgent transarterial embolization followed by elective laparoscopic adrenalectomy is a safe and minimally invasive treatment option for managing adrenal myelolipomas with hemorrhage.
