Outcomes of open partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma in the minimally invasive approach era.
Article in Current urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundWe investigated the characteristics and outcomes of patients who underwent open partial nephrectomy (OPN) in the minimally invasive approach era. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 52 patients (55 cases) who underwent OPN from May 2009 to March 2016. We assessed perioperative change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), complications, and oncological outcomes. Tumor complexity was evaluated using the R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score (NS) and the modified NS.
resultsFifteen cases (27%) had imperative indications and 40 (73%) had elective indications. The elective cases were more likely to have adverse tumor complexity based on NS. The perioperative complication rate defined as a Clavien-Dindo grade ≥IIIa was 11%. The rate of postoperative decline in eGFR at 1 month, 1 year, and 2 years was 22%, 20%, and 21%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that male gender (odds ratio [OR] 11.8,
conclusionsOPN is acceptable with regard to oncological outcomes and complications in the minimally invasive surgery era. We propose that OPN should be the preferred approach in cases in which it is technically difficult to preserve maximum renal function via a minimally invasive approach.
