A case report of metastatic renal cell carcinoma causing corticobasal syndrome.
Article in Clinical neuropathology. 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
We present a case report of a patient with a history of renal cell carcinoma in which corticobasal syndrome had been diagnosed ante-mortem. However, distinguishing features of corticobasal degeneration pathology were absent at post-mortem. Instead, neuropathological examination revealed features consistent with the patient's history of renal cell carcinoma: micrometastatic renal cell carcinoma in cerebellar and cerebral white matter, including within the gyral white matter of the primary motor and somatosensory cortices. There was also Purkinje cell loss and mild lymphocytic inflammation in the cerebellum, but the significance of this was unclear. A number of "corticobasal degeneration mimics" have been described in the literature, but micrometastatic carcinoma causing corticobasal syndrome is a novel finding. This case expands the range of clinical disorders which may mimic corticobasal degeneration to include micrometastatic carcinoma.
