Severity of hematuria effects resolution in patients treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy for radiation-induced hematuria.
Article in Urologia internationalis, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionWe investigated the differences between prostate cancer patients with radiation-induced hematuria treated with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy that did or did not have a resolution of hematuria. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed a retrospective review of prostate cancer patients with radiation-induced hematuria who underwent HBO from April 2000 to March 2010. We performed an analysis of demographic data and severity of hematuria in those who had resolution of or persistent hematuria. Additionally, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) data were also obtained during the study period.
resultsOverall, 11/22 men had resolution of hematuria after HBO therapy with a median follow-up of 2.2 (0.35-13.6) years. The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) grade of hematuria is predictive of final hematuria outcome (resolution vs. persistent) after HBO (p = 0.026). No significant PSA changes were noted before and after HBO therapy.
conclusionsThe RTOG hematuria grade is associated with the resolution of hematuria after HBO therapy for radiation-induced hematuria in men treated for prostate cancer. This information may be helpful during shared medical decision-making regarding utility of HBO therapy in the context of severity of hematuria.
