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

Primary sarcomas of renal origin are among the rarest tumors to present, and definitive diagnosis is based primarily on histopathology since there are no characteristic clinical features. Renal sarcomas are known for their aggressive growth and late presentation, resulting in a particularly poor prognosis. This article reports a case of primary leiomyosarcoma of renal origin in a 38-year-old female patient who presented with complaints of pain and a palpable abdominal mass. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scan of the abdomen revealed a large tumor in the left kidney and tumor thrombus in the left renal vein extending up to the intrahepatic portion of the inferior vena cava (IVC). The patient underwent radical nephrectomy, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of renal leiomyosarcoma.
