Exophytic Mass Around the Tip of the Nose: Unusual Presentation of Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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) has a predilection for metastatic spread, aggressive behavior. RCC is known for recurrence even after years of presentation. RCC has been linked to uncommon metastatic locations and unusual presenting symptoms from the disseminated illness. Common sites of metastasis include the lungs, liver, bones, brain, and adrenal glands, and many case reports are explaining the ability of RCCs to occur almost anywhere in the body. This case report states the unusual site of recurrence of RCC metastatic spread around the tip of the nose as exophytic growth years following nephrectomy. No such case is reported in the literature. We submit this case to report its occurrence, emphasize the rarity, presentation, diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, as well as a review of the literature. Renal cell carcinoma is the third most common cause of distant head and neck metastases and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of rapidly growing head and neck lesions.
