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

Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is a rare variant of angiomyolipoma with malignant behavior characterized by predominantly epithelioid cells and minimal fat, mimicking renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on imaging. Preoperative diagnosis is challenging due to its non-specific clinical and radiological features, necessitating a histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis. Unlike classic angiomyolipoma, EAML can demonstrate aggressive behavior, including local invasion, recurrence, and distant metastasis. Owing to the rarity of the tumor, there is a paucity of data regarding the immunohistochemical markers and molecular profiles for predicting biomarkers in EAML. We report a case of renal EAML in a 23-year-old female with liver and lymph node metastases, which was preoperatively diagnosed as RCC. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry favored a diagnosis of EAML. Furthermore, next-generation sequencing confirmed a
