Metastatic renal cell carcinoma presenting as gastrointestinal bleeding.

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
A 73-year-old female with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) presented with melena and lethargy. She was found to be iron deficient with a hemoglobin of 101 g/L. Her gastroscopy found six irregular pedunculated non-bleeding polyps, 10-20 mm in diameter. Histopathology of the resected polyp returned as metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Gastric metastases from any primary malignancy are rare and metastatic RCC accounts for only 7% of these tumors. Furthermore, while RCC commonly metastasises to the lung, bone and lymph nodes, metastasis to the gastrointestinal tract is extremely rare, occurring in <1% of patients. Presentation of RCC as a gastric polyp is usually a late event, and on average occurs 6.7 years after initial diagnosis of RCC. Therefore, this case highlights a rare but important late complication of RCC, presenting as gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to gastric metastases.
