A slow and silent return: a case of renal cell carcinoma recurring as gastrointestinal bleeding and small bowel obstruction.

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.
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
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can metastasize years after treatment, with small bowel involvement being exceedingly rare. We report a 74-year-old man with RCC treated with nephrectomy and immunotherapy who presented ten years after clinical and radiologic remission with manifestations of metastatic disease in the small bowel. Specifically, he developed intussusception from a lead point lesion, followed by subsequent gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding and small bowel obstruction from another synchronous lesion. Each presentation required a distinct diagnostic and therapeutic approach. This case highlights the unpredictable course of RCC, underscoring the importance of comprehensive evaluation when patients with prior RCC develop new GI symptoms, regardless of time since treatment and historical remission.
