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

Robot-assisted surgery has become a widely used surgical approach in the management of urologic malignancies. With its initial experience in the treatment of prostate cancer, the technology rapidly expanded to other urologic malignancies including bladder cancer. Since its introduction in 2003, robot-assisted radical cystectomy has seen refinement and increased penetration over the last decade. Furthermore, urologic surgeons have expanded its use to perform urinary diversions. The concept of intracorporeal urinary diversion is still in development but continues to see increased refinement among high volume academic centers.
