An Unusual Presentation of Metastatic BK Virus-Associated Urothelial Carcinoma Arising in the Allograft, Persisting After Transplant Nephrectomy.
Article in International journal of surgical pathology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We report a 32-year-old male 14 years post-living-related kidney transplant presenting with new-onset hematuria and BK viremia. He was found to have BK virus-associated urothelial carcinoma originating in the renal allograft with locally advanced disease and metastases to multiple sites. He also developed acute T-cell-mediated rejection in the setting of immunosuppression reduction for BK viremia prior to undergoing transplant nephrectomy. Eight months following transplant nephrectomy and immunosuppression cessation, distant metastases persisted with partial response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Here, we discuss this unique presentation and compare it with other BK virus-associated allograft carcinomas reported in the literature, in addition to discussing evidence for the role of BK virus in oncogenesis.
