A Rare Case of a Large Primary Renal Neuroendocrine Tumour: A Case Report and Brief Review of Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Primary renal neuroendocrine tumours are very rare clinical entities, and as such, relatively little is known about their clinical progression. Here, we outline the case of a young female patient presenting with abdominal pain and a large 14 cm right renal mass. Initial radiological studies demonstrated localised disease, but during surgical resection, widespread liver metastasis was identified. Histological analysis revealed a grade 2, well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumour pT3a. Whilst surgical resection remains the gold standard for localised disease, further work is required to understand the pathogenesis, prognostic indicators and treatment following metastatic spread. The poor prognosis seen in primary renal neuroendocrine neoplasia highlights the importance of further directed research in this area.
