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

High-risk, localized renal cancer is associated with recurrence rates of up to 75% at 10 years. The outcomes of patients at this disease stage depend on optimal patient stratification, surgical management and systemic therapy selection. Current evidence does not support the use of adjuvant therapy in patients with high-risk, localized disease. During the past 12 months, the results of large, randomized-controlled trials of adjuvant tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment, such as ASSURE and S-TRAC, have been published, but their findings are conflicting. Whether TKIs will become standard of care in the adjuvant setting depends on the long-term data from ongoing trials. In addition, several new trials that evaluate the utility of novel immune checkpoint inhibitors in this patient group are currently recruiting. The management of renal cancer is likely to evolve at a rapid pace over the next few years and matching patients with the appropriate therapeutic regimen is likely to be a focus of future research.
