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

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an uncommon group of disorders, which can be either localised or systemic, characterised by abnormal proliferation of monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells. These disorders represent an aberrant response of myeloid progenitor cells. Bones are the most commonly affected organ but there can be involvement of the skin, lungs, liver and spleen. Renal involvement, however, is rare. LCH is the most commonly seen in children but certain rare forms such as Erdheim-Chester disease can be seen in adults. In this report, we present a case of clear cell renal adenocarcinoma (CCRC) admixed with LCH in a patient with history of smoking and presenting with abdominal pain and heamaturia. Imaging revealed left renal lesion and subsequently left renal nephrectomy was performed with tissue biopsy showing grade 3 clear cell renal cell carcinoma admixed with neoplastic LCH.
