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

Aim This study aimed to investigate the incidence of urethral stricture during the early period after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and the risk factors affecting the development of urethral stricture in patients treated in our clinic. Material and methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent TURP due to benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and had complete postoperative follow-up data of at least 12 months. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between urethral stricture and eight parameters (age, body mass index [BMI], prostate volume, number of comorbidities, amount of tissue removed, operative time, perioperative blood loss, and catheterization duration). Results Of the 3069 patients who underwent TURP in our clinic during the study period, 1740 patients with complete clinical data were included in the study. Mean age was 67.83 ± 5.80 years and mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.63 ± 4.31 kg/m
