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

Schwannomas of the kidney are rare with only a handful of cases reported in literature. We present a case of a large Schwannoma of the right kidney causing mass effect with imaging characteristics thought to represent renal cell carcinoma. On imaging, these masses present similarly to solid renal masses and are therefore indistinguishable without tissue diagnosis. Thus, surgical resection is the definitive treatment for renal schwannomas.
