Secondary involvement of the gastrointestinal tract by renal cell carcinoma.

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
Secondary involvement of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract by renal cell carcinoma is rare. We undertook a retrospective review of our institution's pathology records from January 2006 to July 2017 and identified eight cases of GI tract involvement by renal cell carcinoma. Sites of involvement included stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and cecum. Pertinent clinical information was obtained from electronic medical records. The interval from primary resection to identification of GI involvement was often prolonged, averaging 6 years, and mimicked primary GI tract malignancies, with presentations including GI bleeding, abdominal pain, and obstruction. One case presented asymptomatically on follow-up imaging. Histologic patterns of involvement varied from classic clear cell to purely sarcomatoid or complex unclassifiable morphology. Two patients with tumors exhibiting sarcomatoid morphology died within 2 years of primary resection and <1 year of GI involvement. The remaining patients survived a mean of 9 years (range, 5 to 22 years) at their last available follow-up.
