Renal cryoablation - a practical guide for interventional radiologists.
Review in The British journal of radiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Renal cryoablation is a treatment option for early stage renal cell carcinomas with excellent oncological outcomes and low morbidity. This review outlines the technique of renal cryoablation and provides a guide for interventional radiologists on setting up an integrated service within a renal cancer network multidisciplinary setting. Patient selection and preparation, together with the technical aspects which ensure optimal oncological outcomes and avoid collateral damage to adjacent organs are highlighted.
