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

Recent developments in molecular biology have lead to an increased understanding of the events involved in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) carcinogenesis. In this field, basic molecular pathways important to oncogenic transformation secondary to Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppression gene inactivation, associated to clear-cell RCC, have been elucidated. Loss of function of VHL results in the high-expression of pro-angiogenic growth factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF). New therapies against specific targets in RCC have demonstrated significant clinical activity in patients. These therapeutic approaches are based on the VEGF inhibition by using anti-VEGF monoclonal antibodies (bevacizumab) or multi-kinase inhibitors, that also target PDGF and c-kit tyrosine kinases (sorafenib, sunitinib); or by the inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway (temsirolimus). This article reviews current knowledge of molecular pathogenesis of inherited and sporadic RCC.
