Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma of renal pelvis with direct invasion of the pancreas and descending colon.
Article in IJU case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma infiltrates the perimeter and occurs occasionally. However, there are only few case reports. Case presentation: A left renal tumor was incidentally detected in a 75-year-old woman and protruded outside the kidney, infiltrating the pancreatic tail and spleen. Tumor invasion was observed in the adjacent organs; therefore, the left kidney, pancreatic tail, spleen, and, descending colon were resected. Histopathological examination revealed a sarcomatoid variant of invasive urothelial carcinoma. She received two cycles of gemcitabine and carboplatin combination chemotherapy but succumbed to the disease after 5 months. Conclusion: Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma is rare, with aggressive malignancy. The diagnosis was difficult and required surgery. This is the first case of a sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma with direct invasion into the pancreas and descending colon.
