Effect of Inferior Vena Cava Tumor Thrombus on Overall Survival in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Patients Treated with Cytoreductive Nephrectomy.
Article in European urology open science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Survival data regarding cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients according to the type and extent of tumor-associated vascular thrombus are scarce. Objective: To test for survival differences in mRCC patients treated with CN according to the type and extent of tumor-associated vascular thrombus. Design setting and participants: Within Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Research Plus (2004-2017), we identified CN mRCC patients with renal vein (pT3a-TT) versus infradiaphragmatic inferior vena cava (IVC; pT3b) versus supradiaphragmatic IVC tumor thrombus/IVC invasion (pT3c). Outcome measurements and statistical analysis: Overall survival (OS) was addressed in Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses, in addition to 3-mo landmark analyses. Results and limitations: Of 2170 mRCC patients, 1880 (87%), 204 (9%), and 86 (4%) harbored pT3a-TT, pT3b, and pT3c, respectively. The respective median OS periods were 21, 23, and 12 mo ( Conclusions: Although overall mortality is significantly higher in pT3c mRCC patients than in their pT3b and pT3a-TT counterparts, these individuals may still expect 12-mo or better OS after CN versus virtually 2-yr OS in their pT3a and pT3b counterparts. Patient summary: In this study, we looked at the survival outcomes of metastatic renal cell carcinoma patients who presented with tumor thrombus at cytoreductive nephrectomy. Even though these patients with most advanced tumor thrombus stage demonstrated lower survival rates, the median overall survival was still 1 yr.
