The impact of health literacy on urologic oncology care.
Review in Urologic oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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.
Who cites it
12 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 24 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Health literacy is the ability to access, comprehend, and act upon medical information to make health care decisions. In the United States, 12% of adults have proficient health literacy. Low health literacy has been associated with worse outcomes in several chronic medical conditions. In addition, low health literacy has been associated with longer hospital stays. In the urologic oncology literature low health literacy is associated with increased minor complications following radical cystectomy. There remains sparse data on health literacy and its impacts on prostate, kidney, testicular and penile cancer care. Going forward, in order to provide the best urologic oncology care to our patients it is critical to account for patients' health literacy status.
