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

purposeTo compare the tumor growth kinetics between sporadic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and Von Hippel-Lindau disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (VHL-associated RCC). To analyze predictive markers for the growth rate of these two types of RCC.

methodsThe clinical data of patients with renal tumors who received active surveillance were collected retrospectively. Immunohistochemical staining was utilized to analyze the expression levels of VHL, PBRM1, H3K36me3, and BAP1 in the postoperative specimens.

resultsThe age of the VHL group was significantly younger than that of the sporadic group (P < 0.0001). The mean linear growth rate (LGR) was significantly faster in the sporadic group (P = 0.0004). The tumors of those in the sporadic group tended to have a higher histologic grade (P = 0.0011). In the sporadic group, tumor histologic grade was an independent predictor for rapid mean LGR (P = 0.0022). In the VHL group, initial maximal tumor diameter (MTD) was the only independent predictor for rapid mean LGR (P < 0.0001). Tumors with low VHL expression and negative PBRM1 expression showed a faster growth rate in the sporadic group (P = 0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively). The expression levels of the four biomarkers showed no impact on the tumor growth rate in the VHL group.

conclusionSporadic ccRCC grew faster than VHL-associated RCC. High histologic grade, low VHL expression and negative PBRM1 expression were predictors of faster growth in sporadic ccRCC. A large initial MTD was a predictor of faster growth for VHL-associated RCC.
