Pitfalls in the diagnosis and treatment of fat-poor angiomyolipoma of the renal pelvis mimicking urothelial carcinoma: report of three rare cases.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Angiomyolipoma (AML) represents the most frequent benign neoplasm of the kidney. It arises mostly in the cortex and protrudes into the perirenal space. It is extremely rare for a fat-poor AML to originate from the renal sinus, invade the pelvis, and present with hematuria. Because of the rarity of this lesion, differentiating it from a urothelial carcinoma is difficult, thereby making a preoperative diagnosis and management complex and challenging. We report three cases of fat-poor AML centered within the renal pelvis mimicking a urothelial carcinoma that underwent radical nephroureterectomy. The clinical characteristics, surgical management, and prognosis are discussed to achieve better preoperative evaluation of these entities. This is the first report of fat-poor AMLs involving the renal pelvis and presenting with hematuria. Nephron-sparing treatment is crucial for patients with these entities. Accurate diagnosis may allow partial resection or kidney-preserving treatment.
