Multiple unilateral subcapsular cortical hemorrhagic cystic disease of the kidney: CT and MRI findings and clinical characteristic.
Observational study in European radiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to clarify the radiologic and clinical characteristics of multiple unilateral subcapsular cortical hemorrhagic cystic disease of the kidney.
methodFourteen patients with unique and characteristic multiple hemorrhagic subcapsular cortical cysts of the kidney, not categorized in any existing renal cystic diseases, were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical information including age, sex, symptom, family history of renal or renal cystic disease, and laboratory data were collected. CT and MRI findings including distribution, number and size of cysts, and CT attenuation and signal intensity on T1- and T2-weighted MRI of cysts were analyzed.
resultsAll patients except one were young and none had a family history of renal or renal cystic disease. Common clinical symptoms were flank or abdominal pain and hematuria. In all cases, only the left kidney was involved at initial presentation. Cysts were small (median cyst size, 4-15 mm), numerous, and distributed mainly along the subcapsular cortex of the kidney. Cysts were hyper-attenuated on unenhanced CT, extremely hypointense on T2-weighted MRI, and mildly hyperintense on T1-weighted MRI. All patients except one had normal renal function. Imaging follow-up revealed stable or mildly progressive disease in seven patients. Two patients developed several hemorrhagic subcapsular cortical cysts in the right kidney at follow-up. Three of five patients with a renal pathology specimen showed concurrent IgA nephropathy.
conclusionWe have identified a unique renal cystic disease with multiple unilateral subcapsular cortical hemorrhagic cystic disease of the kidney that has a characteristic manifestation both radiologically and clinically. KEY POINTS: • Multiple unilateral subcapsular cortical hemorrhagic cystic disease of the kidney is a unique non-familial renal cystic disease with a characteristic manifestation both radiologically and clinically. • Most cases of multiple unilateral subcapsular cortical hemorrhagic cystic disease of the kidney are stable or slowly progressive, and do not require invasive intervention.
