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

Total situs inversus is a rare congenital condition (1 in 25,000) with mirror-image organ positioning, complicating nephrectomies. A 68-year-old female with situs inversus presented with a right renal hilum mass incidentally discovered. Imaging revealed a tumor difficult to distinguish from the renal artery and an elongated right renal vein mimicking left-sided anatomy. Radical nephrectomy achieved favorable recovery and preserved renal function. Reviewing 14 cases (1987-2024), focus has shifted to anatomical variations, especially vascular anomalies, affecting surgical complexity. Preoperative imaging to assess adjacent structures is crucial for optimizing surgical approaches and ensuring patient safety.
