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

Primary renal carcinoid tumors originating in normal kidney are extremely rare. We report a case of primary renal carcinoid tumor with an aggressive clinical course and multiple metastases in the paraaortal lymph nodes and the liver as well as a pulmonary metastasis, in a 30-year-old patient. A CT scan of the abdomen revealed a large mass in the right kidney and multiple tumor suspect areas in the liver and paraaortal lymph nodes. The patient did not have clinical manifestations of carcinoid syndrome. Histologically, the tumor was composed of trabecular, solid or anastomosing ribbon-like nests, identical to the features of neuroendocrine tumors from other locations. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for cytokeratin, neurospecific enolase, and chromogranin. Electron microscopically, tonofibrils, primitive desmosomes, and dense-core granules with a neuroendocrine appearance were present. The pathological features of this case are briefly reviewed in comparison with those of previously reportet in terms of certain clinical aspects, prognostic factors and the WHO-classification (2004) of this rare neoplasia.
