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

objectiveTo determine if there is an association between patient body habitus as measured by body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), preoperative prostate volume, postoperative specimen weight, and open conversion with cystotomy or perineal urethrotomy (PU) during holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). We attempt to provide meaningful criteria to assist in preoperative patient counseling. MATERIALS AND

methodsThree hundred consecutive patients underwent HoLEP between August 3, 2018 and February 20, 2020 by a single surgeon. Patient metrics were recorded in a database including age, height, weight, preoperative prostate volume, postoperative specimen weight, catheter dependence, and transfusion requirement. Nine patients were identified who had cystotomy (8) or PU (1) performed during HoLEP secondary to inability to complete the procedure using standard endoscopic technique. Univariate and multivariate statistical analysis was performed.

resultYounger age, higher BMI, higher BSA, and higher estimated prostate volume were associated with increased risk of open conversion during HoLEP. No patient with a BMI under 30 required open conversion.

conclusionMen with BMI >30 kg/m
