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

backgroundMetastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to the skeletal muscle and small bowel is an exceedingly rare occurrence. Both of these sites are unusual sites for RCC to metastasize to and to occur simultaneously is even less common. CASE SUMMARY: A 58-year-old male with known history of RCC presented with a recurrence that was diagnosed through imaging and biopsies. Mucosa abnormalities of small bowel noted during endoscopy were biopsied as well as lesion in the psoas muscle that was noted.

conclusionThis case report emphasizes that RCC can not only recur but can do so even decades later and present as metastatic foci at atypical sites.
