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

Although clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is easy to diagnose early and most can be radically resected, nearly one-third of patients still experience metastases after radical nephrectomy. The most common distant metastases sites of ccRCC are lung, bone and liver. However, periampullary metastasis of ccRCC is very rare and easy to misdiagnose. A 59-year-old male patient was hospitalized for recurrent hematochezia. He had a history of nephrectomy 16 years ago due to ccRCC. Enhanced upper abdominal computed tomography (CT) suggested a mass in the ampulla of vater, and active hemorrhage of duodenal papilla was observed by endoscopy. He underwent an emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy because endoscopic hemostasis and transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) both failed. Intraoperatively, we found that the tumor located in the ampulla and invaded the pancreatic tissue. The operation was successful, with no postoperative complications. Postoperative pathology suggested metastatic ccRCC.
