Transvesical Retzius-Sparing Versus Standard Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Retrospective Propensity Score-Adjusted Analysis.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo estimate the safety and efficiency of transvesical Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (T-RARP) compared with standard robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (S-RARP) for localized prostate cancer (PCa). MATERIALS AND
methods174 patients bearing localized PCa and undergoing T-RARP or S-RARP between October 2017 and January 2020 were retrospectively enrolled in our analysis. All potential baseline confounders were strictly restrained with propensity-score matching (PM) method (1: 1). Within the matched setting, the perioperative and functional outcomes were compared between the T-RARP and S-RARP groups, while the oncological results and functional recovery of the two arms were presented with Kaplan-Meier curves.
resultsFinally, 114 and 60 eligible patients harbouring localized PCa were identified in the S-RARP and T-RARP group, respectively. No significant differences between the two groups were found in all baseline characteristics after PM. Within the matched cohort, no case was converted to open surgery in either group. The T-RARP group was significantly related to a higher mean operative time (
conclusionsT-RARP by experienced hands was feasible for selected patients with clinically localized PCa, yielding significantly improved early return to UC and similar erectile functional preservation without compromising oncological control when compared with the standard approach.
