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

Historically, gastric metastasis from renal cell cancer (RCC) has been extremely rare. As RCC is now being treated with various agents of targeted therapy, however, the rate of unusual visceral metastases might increase as outcomes improve and follow-up periods grow longer. Here we present a valuable case of gastric metastasis from RCC detected in a routine CT scan during sequential targeted therapy. A 73-year-old man was referred to our hospital, presenting with left renal cell cancer with multiple lung metastases at stage cT1bN0M1. He received first-line targeted therapy consisting of sunitinib and subsequently underwent left radical nephrectomy. He then underwent sequential therapy consisting of interferon-alpha, sunitinib, everolimus, and axitinib for multiple lung metastases. Five years after nephrectomy, a follow-up computed tomography scan revealed a 2.2 × 1.6 cm mass in the stomach without any symptoms. Gastrointestinal endoscopy disclosed a polypoid lesion at the gastric fundus. Endoscopic submucosal resection was performed. Microscopic diagnosis revealed gastric metastasis from RCC. As various new therapeutic agents increase survival periods for metastatic RCC patients in this era of targeted therapy, clinicians must watch for metastasis in the stomach, though this was formerly a rare event.
