Acquired Cystic Disease-Associated Renal Cell Carcinoma Extending to the Renal Pelvis Mimicking Urothelial Carcinoma on Computed Tomography (CT): Two Case Reports.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
BACKGROUND Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACD-associated RCC), which was added to the 2016 World Health Organization classification, is the most common subtype of RCC in patients undergoing long-term dialysis. ACD-associated RCC is underrecognized and reports of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging findings for the lesion are sparse. Similar to urothelial carcinoma, ACD-associated RCC is poorly to slightly enhanced on dynamic CT. Here, we report 2 cases of ACD-associated RCC filling the renal pelvis and mimicking urothelial carcinoma. CASE REPORT We describe 2 cases of ACD-associated RCC filling the left renal pelvis in patients undergoing dialysis for more than 10 years. In both cases, the patient's chief complaint was hematuria, and a left renal pelvic mass with poor enhancement was seen on dynamic CT. In both cases, the preoperative diagnosis was urothelial carcinoma of the left renal pelvis. Total nephroureterectomy was performed, and the final diagnosis was ACD-associated RCC. CONCLUSIONS ACD-associated RCC is a common tumor in patients undergoing long-term dialysis. When ACD-associated RCC is located in the renal pelvis, the imaging findings are similar to those of urothelial carcinoma. Therefore, it is important for radiologists to include ACD-associated RCC in the differential diagnosis.
