Role of minimally invasive partial nephrectomy in the management of renal mass.
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 5 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
Partial nephrectomy is recommended for surgical management of small renal masses (SRM), or lesions ≤7 cm. The decision for surgical intervention involves a balanced patient assessment. Minimally invasive approach, which includes laparoscopic and robotic techniques, has shown to have improved blood loss, length of hospitalization, and post-operative pain while maintaining oncologic efficacy when compared to an open approach. Transperitoneal approach is preferred at most centers; however, retroperitoneoscopic minimally invasive surgery (MIS) partial nephrectomy expertise is essential for comprehensive kidney cancer care. With advances in surgical technology and deep penetration of robotics into surgical training and practice, robotic partial nephrectomy has become the modality of choice in modern clinical practice. This review discusses the indications and outcomes for various minimally invasive approaches of partial nephrectomy.
