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: Assessment of renal tumour masses is based on conventional imaging studies (computer tomography or magnetic resonance), which does not allow characterisation of the histopathological type. Moreover, the prediction of prognosis in localised and metastatic renal cell carcinoma requires improvement as well. Analysis of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) in blood is one of the variants of liquid biopsy that may improve diagnostics and prognosis issues of patients with renal tumour masses suspected to be renal cell carcinoma. The aim of the study was to assess the diagnostic and prognostic role of preoperative cfDNA concentration in the plasma samples of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients. Material and methods: The preoperative plasma cfDNA concentration was assessed in ccRCC patients ( Results: The median cfDNA concentration was significantly higher in ccRCC patients ( Conclusions: Preoperative plasma cfDNA concentration has diagnostic and prognostic potential in ccRCC pa-tients.
