Multiple angiomyolipomas mimicking metastases of concurrent clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Article in IJU case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionConcurrence of clear cell renal cell carcinoma and angiomyolipoma is quite rare. We report a case of large localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma with concurrent multiple angiomyolipomas mimicking lymph node metastases. CASE PRESENTATION: A 60-year-old woman presented with general malaise, weight loss, and intermittent fever. Computed tomography scan demonstrated an 8-cm mass in the left kidney, enlarged para-aortic lymph nodes, and small renal nodules adjacent to the main tumor. She was diagnosed preoperatively as having clear cell renal cell carcinoma (cT3a) with multiple para-aortic lymph node metastases, and underwent laparoscopic radical nephrectomy and dissection of the para-aortic lymph nodes. Pathologically, the main tumor was diagnosed as clear cell renal cell carcinoma. By contrast, both the para-aortic lymph nodes and nodules were diagnosed as lipid-poor angiomyolipomas.
conclusionWith the expanding first-line use of molecular targeted therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma, nephrectomy may be avoided by overdiagnosis. Upfront nephrectomy can avoid overdiagnosis and undertreatment of nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma.
