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

objectivesThe objective of this study was to examine the urinary cytokine levels for assessment of inflammatory conditions in patients with orthotopic neobladder. MATERIALS AND

methodsUrinary levels of IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8 were measured in 20 and 22 patients who underwent orthotopic neobladder replacement using ileum and sigmoid colon, respectively, and all cytokine levels greater than 5 pg/ml were defined as elevated. The outcomes were compared with respect to several parameters.

resultsThe proportions of patients positive for urinary culture, pyuria, and bacteriuria in the ileal neobladder group were higher than those in the sigmoid neobladder group, but these differences were not significant. Urinary levels of IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8 in the ileal neobladder group were significantly greater than those in the sigmoid neobladder group. Furthermore, the incidences of elevated urinary levels of IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8 in both groups were not affected by age, postoperative period, residual urine volume or pyuria; however, the incidences of elevated urinary IL-6 levels significantly differed between patients with and without bacteriuria in the ileal neobladder group, while there was a significant difference in the incidences of elevated urinary IL-8 levels between patients with and without bacteriuria in the sigmoid neobladder group.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that chronic inflammation was more frequently observed in patients with ileal neobladder than in those with sigmoid neobladder, and that IL-6 and IL-8 were involved in persistent bacteriuria in patients with ileal and sigmoid neobladder, respectively.
