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
The aim of the study was to evaluate clinical, pathological and peri-operative factors associated with the risk of positive surgical margins (PSM) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in a high-volume center. The study is a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. We excluded cases who were under androgen deprivation or had prior treatments. The population included negative cases (control group) and PSM subjects (study groups). The logistic regression model assessed the independent association of factors with the risk of PSM. From January 2013 to December 2017, 732 patients underwent RARP. Extended pelvic lymph node dissection was performed in 342 cases (46.7%). Overall, 192 cases (26.3%) had PSM. Independent factors associated with the risk of focal PSM were body mass index (odds ratio, OR = 0.936; p = 0.021), percentage of biopsy-positive cores (BPC; OR = 1.012; p = 0.004), pathological extracapsular extension (OR = 2.702; p < 0.0001), seminal vesicle invasion (OR = 2.889; p < 0.0001) and high-volume surgeon (OR = 0.607; p = 0.006). In high-volume centers, features related to host, tumor biology and surgeon are independent factors associated with the risk of PSM after RARP, which are decreased by the high-volume surgeon. The inverse association between BMI and PSM risk needs further clinical research. These issues should be discussed when counseling patients.
