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

We report a renal capillary hemangioma mimicking renal cell carcinoma to highlight a diagnostic pitfall. A 71-year-old woman with right flank pain had a 37-mm hypervascular right renal hilar mass with heterogeneous enhancement on multiphasic computed tomography (CT), suspicious for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Robot-assisted radical nephrectomy was performed due to malignant concern and hilar anatomy. Histopathology showed capillary-sized vascular channels lined by bland endothelial cells, confirming capillary hemangioma with negative margins and no malignancy. This case underscores that benign vascular tumors can resemble RCC on imaging; awareness may aid differential diagnosis and reduce overtreatment in selected patients.
