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

Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)-deficient renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare, molecularly defined neoplasm. We report a 45-year-old man with a right renal mass treated by nephrectomy. Grossly, a 38-mm gray-white-to-brown solid cystic tumor was observed in the lower pole of the kidney. Microscopically, the tumor consisted of sheets and nested proliferation of eosinophilic cells with low-grade nuclei and bubbly or flocculent cytoplasm. No sarcomatoid or rhabdoid features were observed. Abundant extracellular and focal intracytoplasmic mucinous material was observed in the tumor, which was positive for Alcian blue and mucicarmine staining, but negative for periodic acid-Schiff staining. Immunohistochemistry showed complete loss of succinate dehydrogenase subunit B in tumor cells. These findings supported the diagnosis of RCC consistent with SDH-deficient RCC. This case expands the morphological spectrum of SDH-deficient RCC and highlights the diagnostic pitfalls of renal tumors with mucinous material.
