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

Inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT) of the kidney is a rare benign disorder with unknown etiology. In IPT patients, some nonspecific symptoms might present, such as fever, hematuria, and back pain. As it can appear on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging as a hypovascular mass with surrounding fat stranding, IPT can be misdiagnosed as a primary tumor. Since the clinical symptoms, radiographic features, and preoperative findings can be inconsistent, it is imperative to confirm IPT based on histopathological assessment. In the present study, we describe a case of renal IPT in a 13-year-old girl. The patient was treated with nephrectomy of the right kidney since the preoperative diagnosis was renal carcinoma. Pathological examination revealed an IPT. This article emphasizes the importance of preoperative definitive diagnosis in avoiding unnecessary nephrectomy.
