Chemotherapies and immunotherapies for metastatic kidney cancer.
Review in Current urology reports, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Most patients who develop kidney cancer are effectively treated with a radical nephrectomy; however, for those patients who present with or develop metastatic disease, the therapeutic options are limited. Interferon and interleukin-2 remain the standard therapies. Several studies have identified the optimal doses and schedules of these cytokines and groups of patients most likely to benefit from immunotherapy. Although cytotoxic chemotherapy continues to have a minor role in patients with clear cell renal carcinoma, it may become the treatment of choice for some patients with variant renal cancers. Novel agents targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor, its receptor, and other hypoxia-induced proteins are showing great promise and soon may expand the therapeutic options for patients with advanced kidney cancer.
