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

backgroundPublished report of cases of gastric metastases arising from renal cell carcinoma is a rare event and treatment of such patients can be difficult. Gastrectomy may be a surgical alternative; however, the prognosis for the majority of patients is very poor.

methodsWe report a rare case of a patient with a metastatic renal cell carcinoma that metastasized to the stomach. In addition, we conducted a systematic review of the literature to assess the prevalence of reports and to gain a greater understanding of this particular metastatic cancer spread from the kidney to the stomach.

resultsPublished reports of metastases from the kidney to the stomach are not as rare as previously thought with three times of the number of reports found to what most authors thought actually existed. The majority of reports occurred among males (77%). The mean age of presentation was 65 years for males and 68 years for females (range, 40-84 years). Average time from nephrectomy to presentation of gastric metastases was 7 years for both males and females (range, 0-24 years).

conclusionFemales with gastric metastases from the kidney are slightly older than males, and no difference exists between males and females in terms of the time interval between nephrectomy and subsequent metastasis or select patients treatment options.
