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

Sclerosing angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are a subtype of perivascular epithelioid cell-omas (PEComas) with significant stromal hyalinisation and AML-like features. Immunochemically, they show myomelanocytic differentiation. Sclerosing AMLs/PEComas are predominantly retroperitoneal, follow a benign course, and are overwhelmingly reported in females. Here we report a renal sclerosing AML/PEComa in a male. This case highlights the importance of considering sclerosing AMLs/PEComas as a likely indolent differential for small renal masses in men, as accepted knowledge of small renal masses with these characteristics suggests 70-80 % will be malignant.
