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

Introduction: Bilateral Wilms' tumor (BWT) represents 5 - 8% of patients with Wilms' tumor (WT). Despite the improvement of WT survival, still patients with BWT are challenging with a high risk of relapse and renal failure. Purpose: To assess the outcome of pediatric patients with BWT treated at Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt (CCHE) 57357, and to assess the long-term nephrotoxicity among these patients. Methods: This was a retrospective study including all patients with synchronous BWT treated at CCHE 57357 from 2007 until 2020. Records of all patients were reviewed. Patients were followed up until end of December 2024. Results: In 115 eligible patients, median age was 31.5 months (range 3 month - 9 years). Male to female ratio was 1:1.67. Abdominal mass was the most common presentation (69.5%). At the end of the study, 5-year EFS and OS were 69% and 76.7%. Patients with high-risk pathology had the worst prognosis regarding EFS and OS, keeping its significance in uni- and multivariate analyses as the factor with highest hazard ratio (HR = 2.931, 95% CI 1.366 - 6.289 p 0.006). Out of 29 events related to the disease, 21 included local progression/relapse (72.5%), and 8 lung progression/relapse (27.5%). The incidence of ESRD was 6.9% (8 patients). Conclusion: Bilateral Wilms' tumor poses a significant challenge all over the world. Proper timing and type of surgery should be tailored according to each patient. Low-middle income countries face additional challenges related to supportive care for those children who usually present at a very young age with a tangible proportion of them requiring regular hemo dialysis and occasionally renal transplantation.
