Advances in the management of upper tract urothelial carcinoma: improved endoscopic management through better diagnostics.
Review in Therapeutic advances in urology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
As a rare disease, the management of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) continues to evolve. While radical nephroureterectomy remains the gold standard, there is a growing desire to pursue nephron-sparing approaches through endoscopic management, particularly for low-risk disease or in the setting of imperative indications. A particular challenge for those undertaking endoscopic management is appropriate grading and staging of tumors, and thereby appropriate patient selection. In this review we will cover the current state of diagnostics for UTUC as well as highlight the challenges in accurate diagnosis. Additionally, we will focus on emerging technologies to aid in optimizing diagnostic accuracy in UTUC. This will include discussion of narrow band imaging, photodynamic diagnosis, optical coherence tomography, and confocal laser endomicroscopy.
