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

introductionLymphoceles are sometimes formed after pelvic lymph node dissection. However, recurrence at lymphoceles has not been reported previously. Here, we report a case of rapid prognosis of the recurrence at a lymphocele after nephroureterectomy. CASE PRESENTATION: A 78-year-old man underwent retroperitoneoscopic radical nephroureterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy for left ureteral urothelial carcinoma. The histopathological diagnosis was high-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma with squamous differentiation. Follow-up computed tomography at 3 months postoperatively showed a lymphocele with a small solid component, in the left pelvic region. At 7 months postoperatively, he presented with severe fatigue, and computed tomography showed a solid tumor had replaced the lymphocele. Computed tomography-guided biopsy was performed and histopathological diagnosis was squamous cell carcinoma.

conclusionThis report provides support for possible recurrence at the lymphocele after nephroureterectomy. If lymphocele occurs after surgery for malignant disease, it is recommended to follow up with the possibility of recurrence in the lymphatic cysts in mind.
