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

A 68-year-old woman presented with visible haematuria. Ultrasonography and triphasic CT revealed a 2.6 cm mass in the lower pole of the left kidney. A biopsy suggested low-grade renal cell carcinoma. Radical nephrectomy was performed and revealed an epithelioid angiomyolipoma. At year 3, the patient developed ductal carcinoma of the right breast and underwent a wide local excision and sentinel lymph node biopsy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. 4 months later, she was noted to have a 1.6 cm nodule in the middle lobe of her right lung. The primary differential diagnosis was a breast cancer metastasis. Biopsy revealed a metastatic renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma. The patient elected to have stereotactic radiotherapy over surgical excision. Renal angiomyolipomata are generally regarded as benign tumours. In the present report, we describe the first case of pulmonary metastasis from renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma in the setting of breast cancer.
