Bladder paraganglioma presenting with atypical abdominal pain: A diagnostic challenge.
Article in Urology case reports, 2025. 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
A 70-year-old man presented with a 10-day history of intermittent abdominal pain. Initial evaluation revealed a bladder nodule on imaging, but cystoscopy showed no tumor. Subsequent investigations including elevated urinary normetanephrine levels and MRI identified a hypervascular bladder mass supplied by the right internal iliac artery. Laparoscopic partial cystectomy confirmed a paraganglioma with positive immunohistochemistry (synaptophysin+, chromogranin A+). Postoperatively, symptoms resolved, and antihypertensive therapy was discontinued. This case highlights the importance of considering catecholamine-secreting tumors in patients with unexplained abdominal pain and hypertension, even without classic symptoms.
