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

purposeImproved medical care throughout childhood and adolescence has enabled patients with complex urological abnormalities to live longer into adulthood. These patients are now at risk of developing common, age-related, urological conditions. This review aims to review existing data and make recommendations in areas where expert opinion is currently lacking

methodsThis review represents the joint SIU-ICUD (Société Internationale d'Urologie-International Consultation on Urological Disease) consultation on congenital lifelong urology. The results of this analysis were first presented at a joint consultation of the ICUD and SIU at the 2018 SIU annual conference in Seoul, South Korea.

resultsBPH may present differently in patients with neurogenic bladder. Thorough assessment of neurological status, bladder and sphincter function is required before offering any bladder outlet surgery. Prostate specific antigen screening should be offered to men aged 50-69 with neurogenic bladders if they have good life expectancy. Multi-parametric MRI and transperineal biopsy would be the investigations of choice if feasible. Surgery for localized disease should only be done by surgeons with the relevant expertise. Bladder cancer in this patient group is more likely to present at a later stage and have a worse prognosis. Parenthood is achievable for most, but often requires assistance with conception. Pregnant women who have had previous urogenital reconstructive surgery should be managed in appropriate obstetric units with the involvement of a reconstructive urologist.

conclusionsMost evidence regarding complex urogenital abnormalities comes from the pediatric population. Evidence regarding common, age-related urological issues is generally from the 'normal' adult population. As patients with complex congenital urological conditions live longer, more data will become available to assess the long-term benefits of intervention.
