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

backgroundThe natural history of renal oncocytoma (RO) following surgical resection remains unclear. We examined a cohort of post-nephrectomy patients with RO, focusing on the management of synchronous and metachronous tumors and their clinical course under surveillance.

methodsThis retrospective, single-institution study analyzed patients from 1990 to 2020 with at least 24 months of follow-up. Patient characteristics and management of synchronous and metachronous tumors were recorded. Cox regression identified risk factors for metachronous tumors, while Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests assessed metachronous-free survival (MFS).

resultsAmong 328 patients (median follow-up: 109 months), 19% (n = 63) had synchronous renal tumors on preoperative imaging. Of these, 27 underwent additional procedures, revealing renal cell carcinoma (RCC)/cortical neoplasm (n = 7), benign lesions (n = 5), or secondary RO (n = 13). Two specimens were unavailable. Metachronous renal lesions developed in 8.5% (n = 28), with 18 undergoing active surveillance. Among 8 patients undergoing biopsy or surgery, 3 had RCC/cortical neoplasm, 4 had RO, and 1 specimen was inconclusive. 5-year MFS were 98.8% in patients with a single lesion at diagnosis and 88% for patients with presence of synchronous renal lesions (P = .004). Higher BMI (HR 1.09, CI 1.01-1.17, P = .026) and synchronous lesions at diagnosis (HR 2.67, CI 1.16-6.14, P = .021) were significant risk factors for metachronous tumors.

conclusionPatients with RO have a very low risk of harboring RCC in synchronous or metachronous lesions, supporting active surveillance as a safe strategy. However, those with synchronous kidney tumors at diagnosis face an increased risk of metachronous disease and may require closer monitoring.
