Endobronchial aspergilloma mimicking metastatic recurrence in a patient with metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma: a case report.

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.
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
A 71-year-old male patient with metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma developed persistent cough while showing a hypermetabolic endobronchial mass on PET/CT which suggested possible cancer recurrence. The bronchoscopy examination showed a pale lobulated lesion which, histopathological examination confirmed to be endobronchial aspergilloma. The patient received antifungal treatment which resulted in both clinical recovery and reduction of the lesion. The case demonstrates how fungal airway colonization can present as metastatic cancer thus demonstrating the need for bronchoscopy and tissue diagnosis when evaluating PET-avid endobronchial masses in oncologic patients.
