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

purposeThis study compares early complications after cystectomy and urinary diversion (UD) stratified by the surgical focus and case load of two different department chairpersons in a single institution in two time periods. Creating clear data about complications that can affect the quality of life is an important tool for patients to decide whether and where to perform this extensive surgery. HYPOTHESIS: A team of surgeons with a clear focus on pelvic surgery leads to lower complication rates in radical cystectomy. MATERIALS AND

methodsRadical cystectomy was performed in two separate time periods under the patronage of two different chairmen in the same university hospital. The patient data were analyzed retrospectively and the complications 30 days after surgery were assessed using the Clavien-Dindo classification.

resultsStatistical analysis showed a significant difference in the severity of complications between the two time periods, A and B, in total (

conclusionThis study compares for the first time surgical complications in two time periods with different case load and surgical focus in one department. Categorization shows that patients should prefer radical cystectomy in centers of excellence or a high-volume hospital in order to keep complications at the lowest possible level and thus have the highest benefit for oncologic outcome and quality of life.
