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

opinion statementThe adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) represent a rare but frequently severe disease that is associated with poor prognosis, if not adequately managed. Treatment strategies vary according to the characteristics of the tumor and the severity of hypercortisolism. The optimal treatment is surgical resection of the NEN with a curative intent. In unresectable or metastatic tumors, medical control of hypercortisolism with concomitant treatment of NENs based on current guidelines is suggested. Steroidogenesis inhibitors are the principal choice to control hypercortisolism while bilateral adrenalectomy should be considered in cases of failure to control severe life-threatening hypercortisolism. Additionally, amongst the various anti-tumor systemic treatment options, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) seems to also be an effective option for the control of hypercortisolism. Preventive and curative treatment of cortisol-induced complications and comorbidities is also important to reduce morbidity and mortality. Overall, the management of ACTH secreting NENs may be very complex and requires an individualized approach in a multidisciplinary context to achieve the best and timely outcome for the patient.
