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

The role of cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN), i.e. the removal of a kidney involved by cancer in patients with advanced kidney cancer with distant metastases, is the subject of intense debate among urologists and oncologists. For many years, CN has been considered the gold standard in the treatment of patients at this stage of the disease, especially in patients in good general health with no significant contraindications to surgical treatment. The starting point for questioning the validity of CN was the publication of the results of the cancer
