Clinical implication of ectopic liver lipid accumulation in renal cell carcinoma patients without visceral obesity.
Article in Scientific reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Fatty liver has emerged as a prognostic marker of cancer, so we investigated the impact of ectopic lipid accumulation in liver on the clinical outcome for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The records of 230 consecutive patients who had undergone surgery for RCC were reviewed, and liver lipid accumulation was estimated from the attenuation in unenhanced preoperative CT images. The median liver CT values of patients with G3 tumors was lower than that of patients with G1-2 tumors (P = 0.0116), that of patients with pT3-4 tumors was lower than that of patients with pT1-2 tumors (P = 0.0336), and that of patients with visceral obesity defined as a visceral fat area ≥ 100 cm
