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

The robotic approach toward radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer has only recently become widespread. Two of the advantages of the robotic approach have been described to be the optical magnification afforded by camera and the ability to reach deep into the pelvis. These advantages are particularly salient in cases where the pelvis is particularly narrow or the prostate is particularly large. In this report, we describe the management of a patient with two simultaneous prostatic diseases: prostate cancer and a massive prostate weighing 560 g causing urinary retention and hematuria, who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy for prostate removal. To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest prostate to be removed through the means of robot-assisted surgery.
