Fat-Containing Renal Cell Carcinoma Mimicking Angiomyolipoma: A Radiological and Histopathological Diagnostic Challenge.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A well-marginated fat-containing renal lesion gives strong suspicion of renal angiomyolipoma (RAML) that usually requires no surgical intervention. Radiologically, renal masses with a large amount of fat can rule out renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Calcifications are very infrequent in RAML. However, the presence of calcifications in a fat-containing renal lesion is highly suggestive of RCC. These lesions should undergo surgical resection and histopathological assessment to reach the right diagnosis and avoid poor outcomes if diagnosed late. We present a case of bilateral renal tumors, in which one of them radiologically contained abundant fat with calcifications on CT scan, which was confirmed to be an RCC on histopathological examination.
