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

Background: Eosinophilic solid and cystic renal cell carcinoma (ESC-RCC) is a rare renal tumor subtype. Accurate diagnosis and effective management remain challenging due to its distinct but often overlapping features with other renal tumors. This study aims to characterize the clinicopathological features, management, and outcomes of a five-case series to improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for this entity. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed five patients with pathologically confirmed ESC-RCC from 2020 to 2025. Data on clinical presentation, imaging, histopathology, immunohistochemistry (IHC), surgical management, and long-term follow-up were collected. Results: The majority of patients (4/5) presented with flank pain. Imaging revealed solitary, well-demarcated cystic-solid masses with progressive enhancement in solid components and a lack of enhancement in cystic areas. Histopathology consistently showed a mixed growth pattern with eosinophilic, hobnail-like cells and distinct perinuclear halos. IHC was crucial for diagnosis, with consistent CK20 Conclusion: ESC-RCC exhibits a unique clinicopathological and immunophenotypic profile. Early detection and complete surgical resection are critical for a favorable outcome. The potential for metastasis and recurrence underscores the need for genetic testing (e.g.,
