Symptom management with osilodrostat in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 with a Cushing syndrome presentation.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2026. 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
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by predisposition to a multitude of endocrine neoplasms. Cushing syndrome (CS) within MEN1 presents complex diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We report a case of a 36-year-old male with adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing disease and MEN1 syndrome with thymic and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The patient presented with weight gain, weakness and proximal myopathy. Biochemical testing confirmed ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism. Imaging revealed a pituitary microadenoma, a large anterior mediastinal mass, and pancreatic lesions. Genetic analysis confirmed a pathogenic heterozygous MEN1 frameshift variant. After thymectomy, he declined further surgery. Treatment with thymectomy and octreotide long-acting release (LAR) was ineffective. Initiation of osilodrostat (titrated to 5 mg twice daily) resulted in a 76% reduction in urinary cortisol levels and a 47 kg weight loss, with significant functional improvement. Pancreatic and pituitary lesions remained stable. This is the first reported case of successful symptom management of MEN1-associated Cushing disease with osilodrostat, establishing it as an effective therapeutic option for medically complex MEN1 cases where surgery is not feasible or is declined.
