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

Objective: To investigate the clinical manifestations, pathological characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of reninoma. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of one reninoma patient admitted in 2023, supplemented by an analysis of 62 reninoma cases diagnosed and treated in China between 2016 and May 2025, as reported in the literature. Results: The patient was a 10-year-old female admitted for hypertension detected during a physical examination. With normal serum potassium levels, bilateral renal vein sampling confirmed atypical reninoma. Under ultrasound guidance, radiofrequency ablation was performed on the right renal tumor, and pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. Two years postoperatively, the patient presented again with elevated blood pressure and underwent partial right nephrectomy, after which blood pressure normalized. Reviewing the literature, among the 62 reported cases in China, 44 were typical reninoma, 16 were atypical reninoma (patients presented only with hypertension and normal serum potassium levels), and 2 were non-functional reninomas. Conclusion: Young women presenting with high renin and aldosterone, with or without hypokalemia, should raise suspicion for reninoma. Diagnosis requires integration of clinical presentation, imaging findings, and pathological characteristics. Curative treatment is achievable through tumor resection preserving renal units.
