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: In Norway, 5-year survival rates of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are increasing. The objective of this study was to describe the survival of real-world patients with metastatic RCC (mRCC) across Norway and to identify associated factors. The results may provide additional information on the benefits of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in clinical practice. Patients and Methods: We performed a longitudinal, retrospective, non-interventional cohort study using data from four national registries. The study included adults diagnosed with mRCC between 1 January 1995 and 31 December 2018. Primary endpoint was to evaluate overall survival (OS) in all included patients. Secondary endpoints included further analysis of treatment patterns and possible impact on OS. Secondary endpoint analysis was performed in patients diagnosed with mRCC between 1 January 2008 and 31 December 2018, as complete data on systemic therapies were available from 2008 and onwards. Results: In total, 4078 patients were diagnosed with mRCC in the period from 1995 to 2018. The median OS since initial mRCC diagnosis was 1.17 years. OS appeared to improve over time, 5-year OS was 10% in patients diagnosed in the period 1995-2001 compared to 25% in 2012-2015. The secondary analysis included 2338 patients. Fifty-five percent (55%) of the patients received systemic treatment. No differences were observed in the number of treatment lines administered over time or in the number of lines of treatment administered according to tumor histology. Among 343 patients who received ≥3 treatment lines, we observed longer OS in patients who received an ICI as a part of their treatment, with a median OS of 4.51 compared to 2.31 years. Conclusion: Provision of information into registries is mandatory in Norway. This retrospective, registry-based study provides real-world evidence on patient outcomes and treatments of the Norwegian patients with mRCC in the period from 1995 to 2018.
