A Case of Primary Ewing Sarcoma of the Kidney: Robotic-Assisted Nephron-Sparing Surgery, a Feasible Alternative in Treatment of Localized Disease.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Extra-skeletal Ewing sarcoma (EWS) occurs in about 12% of EWS patients; at the same time, primary involvement of the kidneys remains extremely rare. Since it was first described in 1975, only a small case series have been reported worldwide. About 95% of surgically treated patients with EWS of the kidney described in the literature underwent nephrectomy, and the remaining patients only had a tumor biopsy. Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) has not been sufficiently investigated as an alternative in the local surgical treatment of localized disease, mostly as a result of technically unfeasible provisions of negative surgical margins. In this report, we present a unique case of primary EWS of the kidney with an asymptomatic course without radiographic signs that suggest a highly aggressive disease, successfully locally treated with robotic-assisted NSS. This report showcases that robotic-assisted NSS could be a feasible alternative in treatment of localized disease yielding equally good oncological results while, at the same time, creating better prerequisites for necessary adjuvant chemotherapy.
