The value of CT features and demographic data in the differential diagnosis of type 2 papillary renal cell carcinoma from fat-poor angiomyolipoma and oncocytoma.
Article in Abdominal radiology (New York), 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
purposesTo determine the CT features and demographic data predictive of type 2 papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) that can help distinguish this neoplasm from fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fpAML) and oncocytoma.
methodsFifty-four patients with type 2 PRCC, 48 with fpAML, and 47 with oncocytoma in the kidney from multiple centers were retrospectively reviewed. The demographic data and CT features of type 2 PRCC were analyzed and compared with those of fpAML and oncocytoma by univariate analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis to determine the predictive factors for differential diagnosis. Then, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to further assess the logistic regression model and set the threshold level values of the numerical parameters.
resultsOlder age (≥ 46.5 years), unenhanced lesion-to-renal cortex attenuation (RLRCA) < 1.21, corticomedullary ratio of lesion to renal cortex net enhancement (RLRCNE) < 0.32, and size ≥ 30.1 mm were independent predictors for distinguishing type 2 PRCC from fpAML (OR 14.155, 8.332, and 57.745, respectively, P < 0.05 for all). The area under the curve (AUC) of the multiple logistic regression model in the ROC curve analysis was 0.970. In the combined evaluation, the four independent predictors had a sensitivity and specificity of 0.896 and 0.889, respectively. A corticomedullary RLRCNE < 0.61, irregular shape, and male sex were independent predictors for the differential diagnosis of type 2 PRCC from oncocytoma (OR 15.714, 12.158, and 6.175, respectively, P < 0.05 for all). In the combined evaluation, the three independent predictors had a sensitivity and specificity of 0.889 and 0.979, respectively. The AUC of the multiple logistic regression model in the ROC curve analysis was 0.964.
conclusionThe combined application of CT features and demographic data had good ability in distinguishing type 2 PRCC from fpAML and oncocytoma, respectively.
