A case report: renal cystic tumoural calcinosis with ossification and bone marrow formation.

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
backgroundTumoural calcinosis (TC) is a rare disorder characterized by nonneoplastic amorphous calcium deposition that tends to occur in soft tissues around the large joint. Here, we report a case of cystic TC with ossification and bone marrow formation in the kidney. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 63-year-old woman who presented with a complaint of intermittent right lumbar pain for 2 months. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a large cystic lesion on the lateral side of the right kidney, with a circular calcified wall around the lesion, which compressed, deformed and displaced the right kidney. To relieve the symptoms of right lumbar pain, the patient underwent surgical resection of this cystic lesion without partial removal of the renal parenchyma. The pathological results further confirmed the diagnosis of cystic TC with ossification and bone marrow formation in the right kidney. No recurrence was detected 1 year after surgery.
conclusionsThe main differential diagnoses of TC in the kidney are kidney stone, renal tuberculosis, renal cyst with a calcified wall, and tumour. Patients are treated mainly by complete surgical resection of the lesion.
