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

backgroundTo describe the techniques and outcomes of complete transperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (CTLNU) for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) in a single position. MATERIALS AND

methodsThose patients with localized UTUC were included, among which 50 cases had CTLNU while 48 cases had laparoscopic nephroureterectomy with open bladder cuff excision (LNOBE). The clinical data were collected and analyzed retrospectively.

resultsAll 98 patients underwent successful procedures of radical nephroureterectomy without transferring into open surgery. No significant difference was found among baseline clinical characteristics. Compared with the LNOBE group, the CTLNU group had a shorter operative time (98.5±40.3 min vs. 132.4±60.2 min), less blood loss (60.4±20.3 ml vs. 150.6±50.2 ml), shorter length of hospital stay (5.3±2.2 days vs. 8.1±2.3 days), and shorter incision (6.3±1.2 cm vs. 11.5±3.2 cm). The disease-related outcomes such as pathological stage, tumor grade, and recurrence rate were similar between the two groups.

conclusionsThe CTLNU in a single position had advantages of shorter operation time, less blood loss, and shorter incision length. This surgical technique is a more minimally invasive, simplified, and effective way to perform the radical nephroureterectomy.
