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

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) rarely manifests endobronchial metastases, with only two prior cases reported. We present the first known case of endobronchial ACC managed with bronchial stenting. A 21-year-old male with metastatic ACC developed acute respiratory failure due to left mainstem bronchial obstruction. Bronchoscopic tumor debulking and stenting restored airway patency and improved ventilation. Despite initial stabilization, he could not be weaned off the ventilator and transitioned to comfort care with demise. This case highlights the potential role of bronchial stenting in malignant airway obstruction for symptom relief in palliative care.
