Effect of everolimus treatment for regrown renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex after transcatheter arterial embolization.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effects and the utility of second-line everolimus treatment for regrown renal angiomyolipoma (AML) with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) after transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE).
methodsWe investigated a total of 14 patients who underwent second-line everolimus treatment for TSC-AML that regrew after TAE, and assessed their effects and adverse events. Everolimus treatment was performed for AML with a maximum diameter of 4 cm. To determine the reduction ratio of AML, the volume of AML was measured using multislice helical computed tomography. Adverse events were evaluated according to CTCAE v4.0-JCOG. We further compared the treatment effect and adverse events with those in patients receiving first-line everolimus treatment.
resultsThe AML volume decreased in all patients, with a ≥ 50% volume decrease in 57% (8 of 14) of the cases, and the mean reduction rate was 53%. We observed no significant difference in the mean reduction rate of AML between second-line everolimus treatment for regrown TSC-AML after TAE and first-line everolimus treatment for TSC-AML. The adverse events were mild and consistent with those reported in our previous study.
conclusionAlthough further studies are needed, everolimus appears to be effective as second-line treatment for TSC-AML that regrew after TAE and a beneficial treatment option for TSC-AML.
