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

Over the last two decades, the treatment of metastatic RCC has changed significantly, and the role of surgery is being debated. A 50-year-old man presented with pain in his left loin. An ultrasound, followed by a CT scan, revealed a 17.5 cm left renal mass invading the left suprarenal gland, spleen, and pancreatic tail. Radical nephrectomy through chevron incision under epidural block with general anesthesia was performed. The entire mass was removed en bloc. The estimated blood loss was 300 mL, and no blood transfusions were performed. The operation took approximately 2 h. Histological examination revealed clear cell renal carcinoma with extension into the spleen, pancreatic tail, and diaphragmatic fibers with negative resection margin. The patient discharged after a 3-day uneventful hospital stay. Aggressive surgical removal of a locally invasive renal cell carcinoma is feasible and should be considered in patients with good performance status and no or minimal distant metastases.
