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

Among upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UUTUC) cases, there are few reports of the clear cell variant. Systemic chemotherapy will be given according to the usual treatment for urothelial cancer unless lymph nodes or organ metastases make surgical treatment inappropriate. Here, we report a clear cell variant of UUTUC of the left renal pelvis with aortic lymph node metastasis. The patient in this case was treated with systemic chemotherapy, anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) maintenance treatment, radiation therapy, and enfortumab vedotin (EV) therapy. To determine which of the treatments contributed to the therapeutic effect, immunostaining was used. The results indicated that Nectin-4 was expressed in clear cell variant tissues, while programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and PD-L1 expression levels were weak in these tissues. The patient maintained complete remission with these treatments. Two years after the initial treatment, the patient was still alive with no progression or metastasis.
