Medical Treatment of Cushing's Syndrome.
Review in Endocrinology and metabolism (Seoul, Korea), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) refers to the manifestations of chronic cortisol excess. This rare disease is associated with multiple comorbidities, impaired quality of life, and increased mortality. The management of CS remains challenging. Regardless of the underlying cause, surgical resection of the tumor is typically the first-line and preferred treatment. However, when surgery is not feasible or has been unsuccessful, medical therapies may be employed to control CS. The therapeutic strategy should be individualized based on the recommendations of a multidisciplinary team of experts and the patient's preferences, informed by detailed information on the available options. All medications require careful monitoring, along with adequate instructions for patients and caregivers. The aim of this mini-review is to provide an overview of the main medical therapies currently used to treat CS, including their efficacy, safety, and management. Despite the availability of new drugs in recent years, the need remains for more effective specific targeted pharmacological therapies.
