Scrotal Ultrasonography Features of Testicular Adrenal Rest Tumors in Male Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Patients: A Systematic Review.
Review in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism. 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
Introduction: Testicular Adrenal Rest Tumors (TART) is one of the complications in male Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) patients that need early detection using scrotal ultrasonography. This systematic review aims to provide an up-to-date summary of the current understanding of scrotal ultrasonography features of testicular adrenal rest tumors in male congenital adrenal hyperplasia patients to help medical professionals diagnose TART in male CAH patients. Methods: A systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA methodology. The authors searched for studies through PubMed from the last ten years until August 2023. Male CAH patients diagnosed by clinical and hormonal examination or genetic analysis with at least one of the features of TART in scrotal ultrasonography were included. Results: This systematic review involved fourteen studies that were classified into retrospective cohort study ( Conclusion: Scrotal ultrasonography features of TART in male CAH patients were primarily bilateral, located near the mediastinum testes, hypoechoic, clear border, round to oval shape, and hypervascular in color Doppler ultrasound.
