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

backgroundA case of familial bilateral von Hippel-Lindauzon (VHL) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) was retrospectively reviewed and the etiological diagnosis was based on clinical characteristics and genetic testing.

methodsThe clinical manifestations and imaging data were gained from the hospital information system (HIS). Peripheral blood samples were collected and genomic DNA and RNA were extracted. Additionally, mutations of VHL gene such as tiny insertion and deletion of base, point mutation and large deletion of gene were then detected and analyzed by DNA sequencing, real-time quantitative PCR and RT-PCR.

resultsReal-time quantitative PCR and RT-PCR products sequencing showed that the number of VHL gene copies in peripheral blood of the patient was decreased, and pathological germline mutation was detected caused by single copy deletion of exon 2 of VHL gene. The patient was diagnosed as atypical VHL RCC according to clinical manifestations and genetic testing outcomes.

conclusionsVHL RCC can be diagnosed based on its clinical manifestations and genetic testing results.
