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

Schwannomas originating in the kidney are extremely rare with very few cases documented in the literature. It is difficult to distinguish them from other common renal masses based on clinical symptoms and imaging characteristics alone, as both are non-specific for this pathology. Thus, the final diagnosis of schwannoma is typically made only after surgical resection and histologic examination. We present the case of a 66-year-old female who was initially evaluated for flank pain and referred to us after a renal mass was found on CT imaging. A partial nephrectomy was performed, and subsequent pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of renal schwannoma.
