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

objectiveThis study aimed to assess the perioperative and the 12-month efficacy and safety of 140 W high-powered holmium laser for enucleation of the prostate (HP-HoLEP) for the treatment of benign prostatic obstruction. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe data of 540 patients who underwent HoLEP by a single surgeon were analyzed retrospectively. Preoperative evaluation included a physical examination with a digital rectal examination, measurement of maximum urinary flow rate (Q

resultsThe mean operative time was 65.2±20.9 minutes. The mean enucleation time and efficiency were 53±15.1 minutes and 1.72±0.4 g/min, respectively. The mean morcellation time and efficiency were 12.3±15.1 minutes and 7.4±3.2 g/min respectively. Clavien grade 1 complications were observed in 102 (18.9%) patients, Clavien grade 2 complications in 20 (3.7%) patients, and Clavien grade 3b complications in 23 (5.4%) patients. I-PSS, Q

conclusionOur study demonstrated that 140 W HP-HoLEP can be performed with high enucleation efficiency, low perioperative and postoperative complication rates, and excellent functional results.
