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

Radical cystectomy (RC) with a pelvic lymph node dissection (LND) is the gold standard for the treatment of muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) as well as for some high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancers. The therapeutic advantage of LND, in terms of cancer-specific survival (CSS), still divides opinion and, certainly, the question of the extent of LND at the time of cystectomy is still debated. In this article, we have reviewed the evidence supporting the practice of extending LND in order to help clinicians determine what is appropriate in their practice. There still remains a lack of prospective randomized studies addressing whether extended LND provides a survival benefit in patients undergoing RC for BC. However, there is large body of evidence that suggests there is a positive impact on the oncological outcomes in these patients without an apparent cost of unacceptable adverse events.
