Incidental Bilateral Renal Oncocytoma in a Patient with Metastatic Carcinoma of Unknown Primary: a Pitfall on (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
Article in Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Bilateral renal masses are uncommon but can raise a strong suspicion of primary or secondary malignancy, especially during the initial work-up of an oncology patient. Renal oncocytomas are benign renal tumors that are commonly discovered incidentally on diagnostic imaging with a small percentage occurring bilaterally. Although (18)F-FDG uptake in renal oncocytomas has been described, a case of a bilateral (18)F-FDG-avid renal oncocytoma has not been previously reported in the literature. A variety of malignant causes of bilateral (18)F-FDG positive renal masses are known, however it is important to include this benign etiology in the differential diagnosis. We report an unusual case of an incidental bilateral renal oncocytoma evaluated with contrast enhanced CT and (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
