A Case of MEN 2A Syndrome With Bilateral Recurrent Pheochromocytoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 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
Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor arising from chromaffin cells and producing catecholamines. Due to the excessive release of catecholamines, these tumors can present with paroxysmal episodes of high blood pressure, headache, diaphoresis, and palpitations. We present the case of a 23-year-old female patient who presented to the clinic with a history of headache, palpitations, and vomiting for two months. She was admitted for further investigations and management. Laboratory studies revealed elevated urinary and plasma catecholamine levels. Further work-up revealed bilateral adrenal masses diagnosed as pheochromocytoma and medullary thyroid cancer. The patient was diagnosed with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 2 and underwent bilateral laparoscopic adrenalectomy and total thyroidectomy with central and lateral neck dissection, and during surveillance, she was found to have recurrent pheochromocytoma. We also discuss the diagnosis and management of recurrent pheochromocytoma in MEN syndrome.
