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

purposeOur aim was to evaluate the laparoscopic partial nephrectomies (LPN) performed at our hospital and compare the results with those from other current studies on partial nephrectomy. PATIENTS AND

methodsBetween March 2006 and January 2014, 280 patients were treated with LPN in our hospital. We evaluated age, sex, and surgical parameters like operating time, warm ischemia time (WIT), hospital stay, complications, tumor staging, grading, and size

resultsThe patients were 61.6±12.4 years old. The median operating time for LPN was 134±51 min. A total of 30% of the operations were treated using the zero ischemia technique. The WIT was 19.9±9.8 min. The WIT of the last 50 LPN performed was 13±7 min. Complications were documented in 15% of the LPNs.

conclusionLPN is a curative treatment option for the renal cell carcinoma similar to open partial nephrectomy; however, laparoscopy is associated with lower morbidity.
