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

Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome is a rare hereditary tumor syndrome characterized by multisystem involvement and variable clinical presentation. Radiological evaluation plays a pivotal role in early diagnosis and surveillance, particularly in settings where histopathological and genetic confirmation may not be feasible. We report a case of a 69-year-old male presenting with nonspecific abdominal complaints. Triple-phase contrast-enhanced CT of the thorax and abdomen demonstrated diffuse pancreatic cystosis, multiple hypervascular pancreatic lesions favoring pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, serous cystadenomas, a hypervascular left adrenal lesion suspicious for pheochromocytoma, and multifocal left renal cortical masses suspicious for renal cell carcinoma. Based on the characteristic constellation of multiorgan thoracoabdominal imaging findings, the case was interpreted as radiologically probable late-onset VHL syndrome. Histopathological, biochemical, ophthalmologic, central nervous system (CNS) imaging, and genetic confirmation could not be obtained because the patient was lost to follow-up.
