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

Renal cell carcinoma commonly spreads to the lungs, bones, and liver, but splenic involvement has been rare. When metastasis does occur, patients are usually asymptomatic but may present with weight loss, fatigue, or abdominal pain. We present a case of a patient who had known renal cell cancer status post-total nephrectomy who, due to COVID, had delayed surveillance scans and was found to have a recurrent mass in the nephrectomy bed with splenic and pulmonary metastasis.
