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

This is a report of a 2-year-old female who presented with a large right retroperitoneal mass that was abutting the right kidney but appeared distinct with absence of the "claw sign." Biopsy showed Wilms tumor. Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the tumor remained associated with the kidney, though without clear renal origin. Intraoperatively, an extrarenal Wilms tumor was confirmed, and tumor resection was performed without nephrectomy. Postoperatively, the patient underwent kidney-sparing proton beam flank radiation and completed chemotherapy. Imaging remains negative for recurrence, and there is no postradiation atrophy of the right kidney 18 months following completion of therapy. A high index of suspicion is needed for extrarenal, retroperitoneal Wilms tumor to allow for kidney-sparing treatment.
