Sister Mary Joseph's Nodule From Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sister Mary Joseph's nodules (SMJNs) are umbilical skin metastases of various abdominopelvic malignancies, and they rarely originate from renal cell carcinomas. Radiotherapy is typically used to treat the nodules as a palliative intention. We report a rare case of SMJN that originated from clear cell renal cell carcinoma, which was treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and interstitial brachytherapy (ISBT). A 74-year-old male patient with a history of left renal cell carcinoma developed an umbilical nodule which was diagnosed as SMJN. The patient underwent EBRT (30 Gy in 10 fractions) and ISBT (12 Gy in two fractions), leading the nodule to complete resolution. This case report might support that radiotherapy, including ISBT, is effective for the treatment of SMJN from renal cell carcinoma.
