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 angiomyolipoma (AML) is a rare benign tumor of the kidney that can occur as a sporadic lesion or a part of tuberous sclerosis. A 77-year-old female patient with a history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and an unclear history of left nephrectomy in 1999 presented with progressive shortness of breath and palpitations. Her vital signs showed elevated blood pressure, and the examination was benign and non-focal. A work-up showed multiple lesions in her lungs and right kidney, representing lymphangioleiomyomatosis. The patient was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis and was followed up by pulmonology and nephrology. She underwent embolization of the renal AML, after which her blood pressure (BP) was more controlled, and she reported feeling well and symptom-free. Renal AML, as a part of tuberous sclerosis, is a rare cause of secondary hypertension. Embolization of AML is effective in controlling BP.
