Metastatic renal cell carcinoma presenting as chronic bleeding from the stomach: a rare case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) most commonly metastasizes to the lung, adrenals, brain and pancreas, but metastasis to the stomach is uncommon. We present a 77-year-old male who underwent left nephrectomy 9 years previously for RCC with known metastatic disease to the lungs, diaphragm and stomach, and required multiple transfusions for acute blood loss anemia. A previous esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a large, friable, ulcerated mass at the gastric cardia. Biopsies of the mass demonstrated clear-cell carcinoma compatible with metastatic RCC. After multiple attempts at endoscopic, procedures and embolization were unsuccessful at controlling bleeding, the patient was treated with palliative total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. At discharge, the patient had been hemodynamically stable and tolerating a liquid diet. This case report highlights the presenting symptomology of RCC, explores the rarity of gastric metastases, and reviews current literature on management strategies for these patients.
