Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma of a Renal Allograft.

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
BACKGROUND Kidney transplantation is a treatment option for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, life-long immunosuppressive therapy, which is obligatory for renal transplant recipients, increases the risk of cancer recurrence and de novo tumor formation. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in kidney transplant recipients. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) of an allograft kidney is an extremely rare type of neoplasm and occurs in only about 0.22-0.25% of all kidney recipients. RCC is often asymptomatic and can be an incidental finding on routine examination. CASE REPORT In this case study, we describe a patient who developed chromophobe renal cell carcinoma 3 years after kidney transplantation from a living related donor. At the time of detection of the tumor, the graft function was impaired. A renal allograft biopsy was performed, and the pathological examination showed signs of chronic inflammation and chronic graft rejection. The graft biopsy failed to differentiate between oncocytoma and chromophobe carcinoma. Due to impaired graft function, presence of neoplasm in the graft, and morphologic chronic rejection, it was decided to perform a transplantectomy. The final histological examination showed the eosinophilic type of chromophobe carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS Chromophobe carcinoma in a kidney allograft is extremely rare in kidney transplant recipients. This clinical observation confirms the necessity and effectiveness of regular ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging of the graft, not only for monitoring the functioning of the graft, but also for early detection of neoplasms in the transplanted kidney.
