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

objectivesClear cell and papillary renal cell carcinomas (RCC) are the two most common RCC subtypes, accounting for approximately 70% and 15% of kidney cancers, respectively. Clear cell RCC is commonly associated with

methodsNine RCC cases were retrospectively selected and analyzed using histologic slides and immunohistochemical staining for CAIX, RCC, CD10, CK7, P504S, Vimentin, and EMA. Next-generation sequencing was performed on all cases to identify genetic mutations, and cytogenetic analysis was conducted on one case.

resultsThe cohort consisted of nine male patients aged 49 to 68 years (mean 61.4). Surgical specimens included six radical and three partial nephrectomies; seven tumors were located in the left kidney and two in the right. Tumor sizes ranged from 0.8 to 15.2 cm. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed positive staining for RCC (6/9), CAIX (3/4), CD10 (6/6), and CK7 (5/9). In six clear cell RCCs, next-generation sequencing identified

conclusionsNext-generation sequencing is a useful method for categorizing RCCs with clear cells, papillary features, and unusual histology. Additionally,
