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

backgroundWhen local recurrence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) occurs after nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) on the ipsilateral side, some surgeons hesitate to perform reoperative surgery because of possible difficulties. We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of repeat partial nephrectomy (RePN) compared with those of initial partial nephrectomy (iPN) for RCC of a solitary kidney.

methodsUntil September 2017, 1671 patients with renal tumors underwent NSS. Of these, 79 patients who underwent NSS for sporadic RCC of a solitary kidney were included. Parameters were compared using the Mann-Whitney U, Pearson Chi-square, and Fisher exact tests.

resultsEleven patients underwent RePN and 68 underwent iPN. The RePN group had a relatively smaller tumor size (p = 0.0432), longer operative time (p = 0.0432), and higher estimated blood loss (p = 0.0002) than the iPN group. No significant differences in the other clinical factors were found between the groups. The rates of perioperative complications greater than Clavien-Dindo grade II were 18.2% and 17.6% in the RePN group and iPN group, respectively. The mean decreasing rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate was not different between the groups at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. No significant differences were found in hemodialysis-free survival (p = 0.7392) and intrarenal recurrence-free survival (p = 0.4924) between the groups.

conclusionsThe clinical outcomes of RePN were not significantly different compared with those of iPN for patients with sporadic RCC of a solitary kidney. RePN is technically feasible with acceptable complication and local recurrence rates with better postoperative kidney function.
