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

The importance of histologic characterization of renal masses is increasing in the management of small renal tumors and metastatic settings of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Tissue sampling of renal lesions is generally achieved through a percutaneous approach yet endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) with cytological analysis could be more suitable in selected circumstances. We report a case of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) of an anterior, mesorenal right kidney mass with a thrombus extending into the right atrium, unreachable via a percutaneous approach.
