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

Renal-cell carcinoma is the most lethal of all urologic malignancies, with a high metastatic potential. Approximately 25% of patients present with stage IV disease, and up to 40% of patients have disease recurrence after nephrectomy. Computed tomography (CT) is an important imaging modality for initial diagnosis and restaging of this patient population. Although extremely rare, clear-cell renal carcinoma has been reported to metastasize to the gallbladder. We present the case of a 50-year-old man who developed clear-cell renal carcinoma metastases to the contralateral adrenal gland and the gallbladder that were detected at initial restaging with CT scan.
