Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of collecting duct carcinoma in the renal: a case report misdiagnosed as renal abscess on computed tomography scan.

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
Collecting duct carcinoma (CDC), also known as Bellini duct carcinoma, is a rare malignancy with significant challenges in early diagnosis. This paper presents a case report of CDC that was misdiagnosed as renal abscess on computed tomography (CT). A 49-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with bilateral lumbar pain, exacerbated on the left side, accompanied by hematuria. Following laboratory tests, CT scan, ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), the CT diagnosis was renal abscess, whereas CEUS suggested a malignant tumor. After a multidisciplinary discussion, the patient underwent surgery and was diagnosed with CDC. Previous studies indicate that two-dimensional ultrasound of CDC often lack typical features, while CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan usually show mild enhancement. CEUS has a unique advantage in visualizing the microvasculature, which aids in the diagnosis of CDC.
