1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Tubulocystic renal cell carcinoma is a rare neoplasm of kidney with low metastatic tendency. There has only been a relatively small collection of literature dedicated to this subtype. Here we present two cases diagnosed in our center with detailed clinical information. Along with literature review, we aim to paint a comprehensive profile of TC-RCC. Hematuria and asthenia could be the chief complaints although most patients are asymptomatic. This lesion has a signature multilocular cystic form on radiology and enhancement of septa should reveal malignancy. Histologically, the cysts are lined by a single layer of flattened, cuboidal/columnar, and hobnail epithelium with enlarged nuclei and intermediate to large nucleoli. PAX8 and AMACR are most commonly positive while CD10 or CK7 could be focally stained in some cases. Overall, the diagnosis of TC-RCC should be based on comprehensive clinical and molecular results because early determination of the lesion could prelude a timely intervention and favorable prognosis.
