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
backgroundWith lower rates of postoperative renal failure, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, partial nephrectomy achieves longer overall survival and equally long tumor-specific survival. It is thus the current gold standard treatment for renal tumors and now also for those ≥ 4 cm in size. The main complications of nephron-sparing surgery, particularly for large and centrally located tumors, are postoperative parenchymal bleeding and urinary fistulas after opening the urinary collecting system (UCS). MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween August 2003 and April 2012, 76 partial nephrectomies for tumors ≥ 4 cm in size were performed using porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS, Surgisis®) to close the capsular, renal and in some cases, UCS defects.
resultsThe median tumor size was 5.0 cm (range 4.0-13.0 cm) and the intervention was performed with warm ischemia in 25 cases (32.8 %), with cold perfusion in 16 cases (21.2 %) and without ischemia in 35 cases (46.0 %). A total of 4 patients (5.5 %) developed postoperative urinary fistulas and 4 (5.5 %) required revision surgery because of significant postoperative bleeding. There were no local infections or allergic reactions to the foreign material.
conclusionsSurgisis® enables a quick and technically uncomplicated closure of the renal defect after partial nephrectomy for tumors. It has the potential to further minimize postoperative bleeding and urinary fistulas and to facilitate the intervention to the extent that nephron-sparing surgery will gain broader acceptance even in patients with tumors ≥4 cm in size.
