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
objectivesPapillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) represents the largest subgroup of non-clear-cell kidney cancer. In this retrospective multicenter study, we assessed tumor characteristics and long-term prognosis of patients with pRCC in comparison with conventional clear-cell cancer (ccRCC).
methodsWe evaluated 2,804 patients who had undergone renal surgery for pRCC or ccRCC between 1990 and 2006. The mean follow-up was 65 months.
resultsBoth pRCC and ccRCC groups were comparable concerning age, tumor grade and the incidence of regional lymph node metastasis at diagnosis. The percentage of male patients was higher in pRCC than in ccRCC (76.0% vs. 63.6%), pRCC patients suffered less often from advanced tumors (22.3% vs. 38.1%), visceral metastasis at diagnosis (8.1% vs. 14.5%) and died less frequently due to RCC progression (16.3% vs. 29.6%). Applying multivariable analyses pRCC was found to be an independent predictor of a favorable clinical course for patients with organ-confined RCC. In contrast in advanced disease papillary histology was significantly associated with a poor prognosis and early tumour-related death.
conclusionspRCC seem to be stratified into two different prognostic groups. Localized pRCC has a significantly better prognosis than ccRCC. In contrast, advanced pRCC is characterized by a worse clinical outcome. Whether these two different pRCC cohorts are consistent with the recently defined types 1 and 2 pRCC subtypes or are characterized by other typical genetic alterations, which would lead to a novel pRCC subclassification is currently under investigation within the German Renal Cancer Network.
