Health-related quality of life in patients undergoing radical cystectomy with modified single stoma cutaneous ureterostomy, bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy and ileal conduit.

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
purposeTo compare the clinical outcomes and patients' health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) with modified single stoma cutaneous ureterostomy (MCU), bilateral standard cutaneous ureterostomy (SCU) and ileal conduit (IC) using validated diversion-specific HR-QoL instrument.
methodsThe study included 70 patients who underwent open radical cystectomy with either MCU, SCU, or IC from May 2017 to May 2018. In total 23, 25 and 22 patients were included in each group, respectively, after applying the following exclusion criteria: female, pre- and postoperative radio and chemotherapy, palliative surgery. HR-QoL was evaluated using the European Association of Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Core Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for patients undergoing radical cystectomy (FACT-Bl-Cys).
resultsGlobal health status per EORTC-QLQ-C30 was the only domain that was found to be statistically better in the IC group compared to MCU (p = 0.007). Higher scores in additional concerns (p = 0.008), functional health domains (p = 0.002), satisfaction from urinary diversion (p = 0.004), and total score (p = 0.027) per FACT-Bl-Cys questionnaire, global health status (p < 0.001), and symptom scale (p = 0.017) per EORTC-QLQ-C30 were observed in IC compered to SCU. Patients with MCU had better scores of functional health (p = 0.012), satisfaction from urinary diversion (p = 0.001), and global health status (p = 0.008) than SCU.
conclusionIC is associated with better quality of life scores compared to SCU and similar scores compared to MCU. MCU possesses better scores of HR-QoL domains compared to SCU. Our results suggest that MCU should be preferred in patients requiring SCU and could be considered for patients requiring IC.
