Renal and Lung Cysts in Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome: A Continuum of the Same Disorder.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder, affecting multiple organs, mostly the skin, lungs, and kidneys. The prevalence of BHD syndrome is difficult to define given the rarity of the disease. Patients present most often with primary spontaneous pneumothorax. Renal tumors are a characteristic finding in BHD, and are often bilateral and multifocal and of the chromophobe and oncocytoma variant. Very scarce reports have highlighted the presence of simple renal cysts, as the only phenotypical renal manifestation, in BHD patients. Herein, we highlight two novel cases of bilateral multiple renal and pelvic cysts, in two females with genetically proven BHD syndrome, doubting a potential association with BHD syndrome.
