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

backgroundMost patients with cystitis glandularis (CG) suffer from recurrence after primary treatment. Therefore, we performed this multicenter study to clarify the recurrent risk factors and constructed a predictive nomogram for the risk of recurrence. Also, we try to investigate the correlation between CG and bladder cancer.

methodsConsecutive patients with pathologically confirmed CG were divided into training and validation sets. Clinicopathological characters were collected from electronic medical records. Uni- and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors of CG recurrence in the training set. The predictive nomogram was developed by incorporating these independent factors and histological subtype. The performance of the nomogram was assessed and validated with respects to its calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. The risk of developing subsequent bladder cancer was analyzed from the follow-up data.

resultsUltimately, 278 eligible patients were included and were allocated to a training set (n=190) and a validation set (n=88). Of them, 165 (59.35%) patients experienced CG recurrence, and none showed evidence of subsequent bladder carcinoma during a median (IQR) follow-up time of 27 months (14-57 months). Results of multivariate analysis showed that urinary infections, long-term indwelling catheter usage, urinary calculus, squamous metaplasia, and atypical hyperplasia were independent risk factors of CG recurrence. The C-index (95% CI) of the nomogram was 0.76 (0.69-0.83) in the training set and 0.72 (0.61-0.83) in the validation set. A decision curve analysis (DCA) demonstrated that this predictive nomogram was clinically useful.

conclusionsWe developed and validated a nomogram to predict the individualized risk of CG recurrence. Also, we demonstrated that neither intestinal nor typical CG increased the consequent risk of bladder cancer during the follow-up period.
