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

objectivesTreatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has become increasingly more complex over the last several years. Objective 1 is to which treatment option is immunotherapy, targeted therapy, or the combination of immunotherapy with targeted therapy the best for patients? Objective 2 is to study which regimens with the highest chance of cure/durable response and what is the optimal sequence in advanced RCC. MATERIALS AND

methodsBetween 2016 and 2018, 6 adult patients admitted to our institute with RCC were reviewed. Clinical information, treatment and outcomes were retrieved for further analysis. This applies to all risk groups as determined by the International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium criteria. We have intended to provide the reader with a comprehensive and authoritative review of the broad subject of RCC.

resultsImmunotherapy-based regimens and the functioning of various growth-and survival-promoting kinases, specifically, receptor-associated tyrosine kinases have dramatically changed the treatment landscape of advanced RCC. Recent phase III trials have demonstrated a survival benefit for front-line ipilimumab plus nivolumab therapy, and immune checkpoint inhibition plus anti-vascular endothelial growth factor combination therapy in metastatic clear-cell RCC.

conclusionIn renal cell carcinoma, rapid and successful drug development has resulted in multiple treatment options, requiring careful decision making for individual patients and have emphasized how newly developed therapies work.
