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

Primary renal epithelioid angiosarcoma (EAS) is extremely rare and carries a poor prognosis. Herein, we present a case of renal EAS in an 81-year-old male patient who complained of hematuria for 1 year. A computerized tomography (CT) scan revealed an occupying lesion at the upper pole of the left kidney, with scattered calcifications, along with retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis and possible lung metastasis. A laparoscopic palliative nephrectomy was performed, and postoperative pathology confirmed a malignant tumor with necrosis in the left kidney. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) revealed positive expression for CD31, CD10, and vimentin, consistent with the diagnosis of EAS. Although EAS is a rare, aggressive, and often misdiagnosed condition, IHC can help confirm its diagnosis, and in our case, the scattered calcifications observed on CT imaging might be helpful in its differential diagnosis.
