GRIM-19 deficiency promotes clear cell renal cell carcinoma progression and is associated with high TNM stage and Fuhrman grade.

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
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) exhibits the highest mortality among all urological malignancies. The investigation of the potential disease progression markers can improve ccRCC diagnosis and treatment. Gene associated with retinoid-interferon-induced mortality-19 (GRIM-19) is involved in carcinogenesis and cancer progression in a variety of cancer types including RCC. While, its role in ccRCC remains unclear, this cancer type is considered the most aggressive RCC subtype. In the present study, RT-qPCR, western blotting and immunohistochemical (IHC) assays demonstrated that GRIM-19 protein and mRNA levels were downregulated in ccRCC tumor tissues compared with the corresponding levels noted in paracancerous non-tumor tissues. The deficiency of this protein contributed in relaxed and/or collapsed structures of the kidney tubules and collecting duct noted in tumor tissues. Moreover, the reduction in GRIM-19 expression was associated with high tumor, lymph nodes and metastasis (TNM) stage and Fuhrman grade of ccRCC tumors. The data suggested that GRIM-19 acted as a tumor suppressor and that its deficiency promoted ccRCC development and progression. GRIM-19 can be considered a potential tumor marker for ccRCC.
