Is there an oncological benefit to extended lymphadenectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer?
Review in Translational andrology and urology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The full optimal extent of a pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) at time of radical cystectomy (RC) has not yet been determined. The diagnostic role of LND is clear and is extremely important for identifying those who may benefit from adjuvant therapy. While retrospective analyses have demonstrated improved survival when the number of lymph nodes is increased and extended LNDs (eLNDs) are performed, these results have yet to be borne out in prospective randomized phase III trials. The recently published LEA AUO AB 25/02 trial is a promising attempt to determine the efficacy of eLND, but unfortunately falls short because of its limited design and therefore, did not demonstrate an improvement in recurrence-free survival (RFS). In an era of increased utilization of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) providing survival benefit, the ability to demonstrate improved survival with eLND is even more challenging. Currently, we are awaiting the results of SWOG S1011, expectations of achieving a positive trial with improved RFS remains unlikely.
