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 robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy for isthmic clear cell renal cell carcinoma in a horseshoe kidney with aberrant aortic arterial supply. Intraoperative management utilized indocyanine green-guided near-infrared fluorescence imaging, intraoperative ultrasonography, and ligation of aberrant arterial branches supplying the mass. Pathology demonstrated a 4.6-cm WHO/ISUP grade 3 clear cell RCC, pathologic stage pT1b with negative surgical margins. Postoperative recovery was uncomplicated with preserved renal function and no recurrence at 6 months. This case highlights the importance of detailed anatomic delineation during nephron-sparing surgery in complex horseshoe kidney anatomy.
