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 often metastasizes to the adrenals; however, bilateral adrenal metastases are rare. We here report a patient with bilateral adrenal metastases from renal cell carcinoma after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and review relevant published reports. A 64-year-old man underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for a left renal tumor. During follow-up, he was diagnosed with bilateral adrenal metastases. He underwent left adrenalectomy followed by right partial adrenalectomy to preserve adrenal function. The renal tumor later metastasized to other parts of the body. He continues to receive systemic treatment and remains in partial remission. Patients with pT1aN0M0 renal cell carcinoma generally have a favorable prognosis. However, occasional such patients develop multiple metastases. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of bilateral adrenal metastases after partial nephrectomy. Clinicians should keep this rare scenario in mind.
