A Benign Renal Tumor With Serious Consequences: A Case Report of Juxtaglomerular Cell Tumor and Chronic Renal Disease in a Teenager.
Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Juxtaglomerular cell tumor (JGCT), or reninoma, is a rare benign renal neoplasm. It is characterized by severe hypertension and hypokalemia due to excessive renin produced from the juxtaglomerular apparatus on the afferent arteriole of the glomerulus. Herein, we report a case of JGCT in a 15-year-old female who presented with severe hypertension. She was found to have elevated levels of renin and aldosterone with hypokalemia and she responded to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi). Abdominal MRI demonstrated a 4-cm left renal tumor. A radical nephrectomy was performed, and histology showed a well-circumscribed tumor consisting of sheets of polygonal to ovoid cells consistent with a JGCT. After surgery, the renin and aldosterone levels normalized, and blood pressure was controlled with small dose of ACEi medication. Unfortunately, the patient remained in Stage III chronic kidney failure due to the longstanding damage of uncontrolled hypertension prior to the diagnosis. We hereby review the literature and discuss the differential diagnosis.
