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

Bladder cancer is a real health problem due to its increased incidence, high recurrence rate and the fact that usually it is detected in advanced stages with limited number of diagnostic tools and different therapy response rates to current therapeutic strategies. Because of these issues we must develop screening programs and sensitive diagnostic strategies capable of detecting the disease during its early stages but also for characterizing evolution, prognosis and therapeutic response. Issues of great importance are those related to health quality of life of patients from the moment of diagnosis till the use of existing therapeutic approaches. This paper reviews some facets of life quality in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer stressing upon some proposed questionnaires and some new cell and molecular biology and genomic acquisitions (molecular biomarkers) that may become indicators of prognosis, therapeutic response and life quality but also essential tools in guiding therapeutic strategies.
