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

Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a rare but serious complication of solid tumors, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC). RCC typically spreads to the lungs, bones, and liver; LM remains uncommon and indicates advanced disease with poor prognosis. Symptoms include headaches, nausea, and neurological deficits due to raised intracranial pressure. MRI is the diagnostic modality of choice. We report a 60-year-old patient with headaches and orbital pain. Imaging showed a left frontal extra-axial mass invading the bone. Biopsy confirmed RCC metastasis, with a primary renal tumor. This case highlights the role of MRI and the need to consider LM in RCC patients.
