Percutaneous cryoablation of renal tumours under computed tomography guidance: methodology of the procedure.
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Purpose: The incidence of renal cell carcinoma has been steadily increasing over the past two decades, raising the need for minimally invasive approaches. We sought to present the methodology of the percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) procedure developed based on one year of experience with 81 PCA procedures. Material and methods: The percutaneous cryoablation programme at Wroclaw Medical University Hospital has been successfully operating for a year. During this period, patients who were ineligible for partial nephrectomy either because of numerous comorbidities or strong preference against surgery were treated with PCA. Each procedure was conducted with the close cooperation of an interventional radiologist and a urologist. Results: Over the past year, 81 procedures in 74 individuals have been performed and thoroughly analysed. The mean and median effective radiation doses were 12.57 mSv and 10.76 mSv, respectively. Comprehensive details of our workflow are described within the body of the manuscript. Conclusions: Percutaneous cryoablation is a technically effective treatment approach for carefully selected individuals with small renal masses. However, starting a PCA programme from scratch necessitates creation of detailed protocols, as well as close interventional radiologist and urologist cooperation. This review outlines the established workflow and shares insights gained from one year of experience with percutaneous cryoablation.
