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

purposeTo report a multi-institutional experience on robotic radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) and segmental ureterectomy (SU) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).

methodsData were prospectively collected from patients with non-metastatic UTUC undergoing robotic SU or RNU at three referral centers between 2015 and 2018. Transperitoneal, single-docking robotic RNU followed established principles. Bladder cuff excision (BCE) was performed with robotic or open approach. Techniques for SU included: ureteral resection and primary uretero-ureterostomy; partial pyelectomy and modified pyeloplasty; ureteral resection with BCE and direct- or psoas hitch-ureteroneocystostomy. We retrospectively evaluated the technical feasibility, and peri-operative and oncologic outcomes after robotic RNU/SU.

results81 patients were included. No case required conversion to open surgery. Early major (Clavien-Dindo grade > 2) complications were reported in six (7.4%) patients (two after SU, four after RNU). Three patients experienced late major complications (one after SU, two after RNU). Median ΔeGFR at 3 months was - 1 ml/min/1.73 m

conclusionRobotic SU and RNU are technically feasible and achieved promising peri-operative and oncologic outcomes in selected patients with non-metastatic UTUC.
