Parachordoma/myoepithelioma of the kidney: first report of a myxoid mimicry in an unusual location.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2014. 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
We report a case of parachordoma (or myoepithelioma) of the right upper kidney in a 56 year-old male patient. Light microscopic features of the tumor exhibited epithelioid, glomoid, and spindle cells with eosinophilic and vacuolated cytoplasm as well as round to oval nuclei. These cells were embedded in a myxoid and hyaline stroma separated by a fibrous tissue with minimal cellular atypia and a few small nucleoli. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were immunoreactive for epithelial membrane antigen, calponin, vimentin, S-100, and type-IV collagen. All kidney and adrenal were resected, and the patient was carefully followed up. During the 11 months follow-up, recurrence and metastases were not observed. To our knowledge, this study is the first to document a case of parachordoma/myoepithelioma of the kidney. We add this new case to existing tumors and discuss its distinction from other types.
