Incidence and significance of psammoma bodies in Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma and papillary 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
The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence and significance of psammoma bodies (PBs) in Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma (Xp11.2 tRCC) and papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). The presence of PBs, irregular calcifications, hyaline globules and nested architecture in RCC tissues, which included 47 cases of Xp11.2 tRCC and 95 cases of PRCC, was examined by two pathologists. Compared with PRCC, patients with Xp11.2 tRCC exhibited a higher frequency of PBs, hyaline globules and nested architecture. The presence of PBs in combination with the occurrence of a nested architecture achieved a specificity of 93.7% when diagnosing Xp11.2 tRCC. However, there were no significant differences in the overall survival between patients with and without PBs in both types of RCC. Therefore, the presence of PBs combined with nested architecture may provide guidance for the diagnosis of Xp11.2 tRCC; however, PBs cannot predict tumor behavior in Xp11.2 tRCC or PRCC.
