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

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) occasionally breaches the urothelial tissue barrier and extends into the collecting system mimicking a transitional cell carcinoma. We present a case of a TFE3-rearranged renal cell carcinoma in a young patient that extended to fill the entire upper urinary tract leading to a pre-operative diagnosis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) based on CT imaging. A sequential algorithm of IHC/FISH assays led to the correct diagnosis of TFE3-rearranged RCC. Awareness of this potential misdiagnosis, particularly in young patients, can mitigate significant morbidity.
