A case of urinary bladder metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma following use of immunotherapy/tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

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
Introduction: Here we present a rare case of hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis to the urinary bladder in a patient with metastatic HCC. Case presentation: An 83-year-old man developed gross hematuria during combined treatment with an anti-programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitor and an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor for metastatic HCC. A contrast-enhanced CT revealed a 15 × 15 mm soft tissue mass protruding from the posterior bladder wall. Cystoscopy further revealed a solitary submucosal mass located on the posterior wall. The patient underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor. The pathological findings were consistent with a diagnosis of bladder metastasis from HCC. Following a 3-week interval after the surgical intervention, salvage therapy was resumed. Conclusion: During follow-up after TUR-BT in HCC patients who present with a bladder tumor, the possibility of HCC metastases to the urinary bladder should be excluded.
