Clinical study of centrality index in predicting the postoperative pathological nuclear grade of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate whether the centrality index score (C index) can be used to predict the histological nuclear grade of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and guide the clinical treatment of this disease.
methodsThis study included 194 patients with ccRCC who underwent renal surgery at our center between 2016 and 2020 and had complete computed tomography or computed tomography angiography (CT/CTA) data and C index. The relationship between the pathological grade of renal masses and the C index was evaluated.
resultsIn univariate analysis, the gender, body mass index (BMI), tumor size, or height from the center of the renal hilum to the maximum diameter of the tumor along the 90° vertical axis (in cm) is y. The horizontal distance from the reference point of the central axis of the renal hilum to the tumor center is x. The distance from the center of the kidney to the center of the tumor is c and the C index was significantly correlated with postoperative tumor grade (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that tumor size and C index were independent prognostic factors for the preoperative prediction of the pathological grade factor of ccRCC. The receiver operating characteristic curves of the multi-parameter regression model [0.9471, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.9138-0.9803], C index (0.9324, 95% CI 0.8899-0.9748), and tumor size (0.9307, 95% CI 0.8951-0.9663) were compared.
conclusionTumor size and C index were independent prognostic factors for high-grade pathology, and large tumors and small C index were associated with high-grade pathology. Therefore, the C index can help urologists make treatment decisions.
